How to draw a text with QSG?

[Dmitriano]

I did a quick search, but not find a way to draw a text with QSG.

Found an example, that draws a text to QImage first and then creates QSGTexture from that image. Should I use this technique?

As far as I know, there are some text rendering nodes available, but they are not publicly available (they are part of quick-private module).

So unfortunately yes, drawing to a texture seems like a good alternative.

@sierdzio Strange... is there any plans to make them public?

Nope. People have been asking for this for ages...

Although maybe with QML3 in Qt6, who knows. I haven't checked it out yet.
