<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">“I want to use the 3d text on the surface but it is inverted.” It sounds like you are looking at your text from the back. Try moving the camera around to the front. You can
also click the toolbar button marked “-Z” (2nd row near the right). That should place the camera where the text is forward.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">“moreover I don’t know how to write it directly on the program” In the properties panel there is an editable box labeled “Text”. Change that and then hit the “Apply” button
to change the text.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">“what does this mean?” That definitely looks like part of a data file in what is called the legacy VTK format. However, a large part of the file is missing, so that data will
not load correctly.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
