no. you are free to hack it.

I'm not a h4cker (yet)

Don't have time to learn blender api from 2012 to 2021 (right now)

The other solution i found, was to take many many screenshoot of my code, stitch them in photoshop, upsize with topaz gigapixel, import in image as plane, and i don' t have any volume at all but since it's impossible to import svg text to blender, i won't use volume in this projet, sadly.

Here is the result image i made in 20min :

It's just for a blog news thumbnail.

But i could also used an old version of blender 🤔, next time l'll do that !

It's bad there is no auto converter to blender 2.6 to 2.9 like it exist python converter from 2 to 3

here's something that might work for you

Wow, thanks a lot, it work !

You are amazing ❤️

i know : )

it's almost like blender's built in "lexer", but you can modify it yourself to be closer to identical.
