SOLVED Adding virtual labels with app

[mx_ninja]

Hey everyone, I'm just curious, are we able to add objects/labels into the game via an app?

For instance, say I'd want to add turn/corner name labels virtually onto the track above the corner when I start an app... Is that possible?

Either with Lua or Python, I'm keen to try either...

Do you mean something like this? (which is included in the default apps)

Or virtual labels above the actual corners on the track?
Similar to some rally game pace notes? Like so (just an example, from time attack):

Thanks for the reply Luchian, however, this app I know about, I was more thinking about something where the name's hover over the turns themselves, kind of want it for a video purpose. But I'll see if I can make do with the above!

Thank you again though

edit/hint:
apps\lua\JumpAILine\JumpAILine.lua, around line 500
function DrawCornerNames(splinePosition)

unfortunately fonttype cant be changed,
only size and color

This is indeed what I'm after! Thank you for this

updated the thing already:
-refined "Corner names on track" to be always on and not only show when you are inside a corner
-changed to depend on camera position, so also works in free camera mode
-current section has same(-ish) color as in app window

Looking great! I'm dabbling into writing a LUA app myself. I have a question on it, perhaps you know the answer... Any new window I create has got a blur applied to it, same as in your gifs above. Would you know how to remove the blur completely?

I did add the NO_BACKGROUND flag in the manifest, but when I create for instance a rectangle and give it a colour with a 50% opacity, it does work but underneath the colour is all blurred...?

unfortunately you can't really do much, only turning off FXAA makes unblurred apps

and here too:

Ahh, that's a pity. But thank you for the answer regardless, I really appreciate the help!
