Is it possible to have the road labels be rendered underneath an object placed on the map? about harp.gl HOT 3 CLOSED

@nigelkp9 , thanks for your issue. Are these objects 3D or 2D objects? Currently there isn't a way to put 3D objects on top of the text, you can see this in MapView that we have first the call to this.mapRenderingManager.render which renders the scene, then a few lines later we have a call to finishRenderTextElements which renders the text.

We support user text / poi elements with the addOverlayText api on the MapView. But not yet with 3D.

If you have 3D objects, what you could do is have a separate threejs scene and render it after the map has completed, you could do it like this:

        const mycustomescene = new Scene...
        const renderCustomThreeJSScene = () => {
            mapView.renderer.clearDepth();
            mapView.renderer.render(mycustomescene, mapView.camera);
        };
        mapView.addEventListener(MapViewEventNames.AfterRender, renderCustomThreeJSScene);

Does that help?

Yes, they are 3D objects. Thank you, I figured I'd have to do something like that
