I'm writing an app in which I need to place 2D text (that always faces the
eyepoint) within a hierarchy of different SCS and DCS coordinate systems.
What's the easiest way to do this?

The example programs that I've looked at don't place the "text-in-scene" within
user-defined coordinate systems. To use such an approach would require that I
unwind all the coordinate systems manually to figure out where to place the
text in "world" coordinates. Is there an easier way to plunk 2D text at a
particular location within a given coordinate system?

Thanks,

Sandeep
