Hey there

I want to make a text engrave in grasshopper, then I use
“Dynamic Geometry Pipeline” -
“Text Object Info”
, but then “Text 3D Advanced” doesn’t work, in order to get the “TextEntity output”.

below is the error message from the “Text 3D Advanced”,

  1. Warning (CS0618): ‘Rhino.Geometry.AnnotationBase.Text’ is obsolete: ‘Use RichText or PlainText’ (line 88)

  2. Warning (CS0618): ‘Rhino.Geometry.AnnotationBase.FontIndex’ is obsolete: ‘Use Font property instead’ (line 92)

  3. Warning (CS0618): ‘Rhino.RhinoDoc.Fonts’ is obsolete: ‘Use DimStyles table instead’ (line 92)

  4. Error (CS1061): ‘Rhino.Geometry.TextEntity’ does not contain a definition for ‘AnnotativeScalingEnabled’ and no extension method ‘AnnotativeScalingEnabled’ accepting a first argument of type ‘Rhino.Geometry.TextEntity’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) (line 94)

but somehow, “JustifiedText 3D” component below (green one selected) works just fine, but it only provides preview, instead of bake,
