[1.16.2] Draw text infront of item stack

[BeardlessBrady]

I am wondering if it is possible to draw text infront of itemstacks. I can draw textures but for some reason text always appears behind itemstacks. Is this normal, if not I am probably doing something wrong.

I haven't tested it, but this might work: Before drawing the text, do a matrix translation to move the text forward by adding to the z value.

I can't get it to work. For some reason One is appearing infront, the rest aren't.

From what I can see you don't do a translation on the matrix stack. Have you tested that?

I did try that yes with the same result

Strange, because this works for me:

matrixStack.push();
matrixStack.translate(0, 0, 500);
if (count != 1)
	this.font.drawStringWithShadow(matrixStack, num, startX + (i * 26), startY + (j * 26), 1);

matrixStack.pop();

It does work, I forgot to push and pop the matrixStack. Thanks!
