[Visualpython-users] text placement in window space and future features

I'm wondering if it is possible to position text in 2-d window coordinates 
(as opposed to the virtual 3-d coordinates that VPython usually uses).  I 
want to have some text that remains in the same position (the edge of the 
window, say), even as the user rotates the scene and zooms, etc.  Is there 
any way to do this?

Also, are there any other geometrical figures planned for VPython?  For 
example: ellipsoids, truncated cones, or non-rectangular prisms?  If not, 
how would one go about programming objects like these?  (I'm taking the COG 
monte-carlo package as a model here.)

Another question about plans for VPython: are there any plans to implment 
opacity for geometrical figures, as there is for labels?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Sincerely,

NV
