Positioning UI elements inside scene/environment

Hello,

I was trying out the No-Code UI with Frame (Viewport Frame) and few UI elements (buttons, label, etc.). I noticed that UI is rendered on top of the ViewPort covering the entire scene.

Is it possible to render the UI at a fixed point in space, eg: showing a Label + some icons/images above an equipment 3d model. I also noticed that Frame is not an XForm so not sure whether it is possible. If that’s not possible, are there any workarounds available to achieve the same?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, and thanks for your post. Yes I know what you mean. You mean an actual 3D interface, integrated into the viewport depth. Unfortunately, this is not part of the UI framework. The UI framework is just a 2D overlay to the RTX port. If you wanted to create some kind of Viewport 3D elements with data, you would have to actually build some 3D objects and then link them to data sets that are dynamic.
