Answer 1

You can do that with a UI Text game object and the 3D Object.

The steps are as follows:

• In your empty scene, create a 3D Cube.

• Create a UI Text object.

• Drag the Canvas to become a child of the cube.

• Set the Canvas to World Space render mode, remove the Canvas Scaler component and set Width = Height = 1 and all Pos = 0.

• Set the text Width = Height = 100, all Scale = 0.01 and Pos Z = -0.5.
