[Papervision3D] Display textfield in plane in specific position (y)

[Mark I. Ross]

when you create a new instance of MovieMaterial you can pass a Rectangle 
as the last parameter of the constructor, that will "set" the size of 
the moviematerial, then your y setting should be respected (i think).
