Troika: [troika-3d-text] Missing characters

Created on 18 Jul 2020  ·  13Comments  ·  Source: protectwise/troika

Hello, first of all, thank you for your amazing work!

I have a weird issue using troika 3d text.

If I init my Text() with a text with 3 characters length.
And then I change it for a longer text (let's say "hello") only "hel" will be displayed.

Do you have any idea where the problem could be from?

Thank you!

The underlying issue deserves more investigation, but I've got a workaround in place. Version 0.30.1 should fix it for you, please try it and reopen this if you still have issues. Thanks!

i had this problem too, but need to look how i resolved this

@Ocelyn do you use threejs or aframe?

@arpu Thank you for your reply! Threejs

ok, what i do is recreate the troika-text on change, but this looks more a bug @lojjic ?

This definitely shouldn't happen, and I change text all the time with no issues. Can you provide a simple testcase that demonstrates the bug?

Nevermind, I was able to reproduce the bug. I will fix ASAP.

@lojjic Thank you so much!

This bug is caused by an internal change in ThreeJS that they introduced in r117. I'm getting a workaround in place. In the meantime, using ThreeJS r116 should work for you.

any chance for the aframe update?

@arpu I just published aframe-troika-text 0.4.0

wau thx!

Reopening... the workaround has surfaced another bug that causes pieces of text to disappear. I suspect it's due to disposing the geometry. https://github.com/react-spring/drei/issues/62
