Sometimes the 3D model and 2D object will be overlapped as the above scene.
I want to move the text to the top for avoiding overlap situation.
My solution has these steps:
1. Calculate the bounding box of the sphere and convert it to a rectangle which wraps the image of it in the vtk display coordinate system.
2. Calculate the wrapping rectangle of text actor in the vtk display coordinate system.
3. Judge whether both rectangles are overlapped.
But how to judge whether they are overlapped? It's complicated to get the right method which contains all possible overlapping situations, so we can think about this problem in an opponent view, how are they not overlapped?
Write code to make our idea works.
