Is there a way to draw text objects on top of the 2D drawing commands? (box, ellipse)

Hmmm, maybe you could draw the shapes then manually update the 2D without clearing the screen - I have messed with the update commands but can never get it working how I want, worth a try though.
The code is dark and full of errors

What do you mean? Can you just draw the box and the position your text on top?

I actually did something a bit different. I create the text object, get its measurements, create a slightly bigger sprite box, position the box location and depth behind the text. But maybe my use case is different.
