Text/Shape Question

Hi all,

I have got another nice and juicy problem which I have been working on for the last couple of days without success...

At the moment we have a need to determine the bounding box of text rendered on the display. At the moment I have explored PlotText.render_font(). But I have got stuck converting the shape coordinates back into lat/lons. So my question is this, Is there any way to convert a coordinate in a VisADGeometryArray to the coordinate system used on the display?

Cheers in advance,
