3D VisualBrush and TextureCoordinates

This post starts with the last example from the 3D Towards a Solid post.
The previous examples all used a single colour for the Material applied to a surface.
This example replaces the Brush with a StackPanel containing a TextBlock and Button.

At this point the front of the cube will be transparent and the TextBlock and Button will not appear. We need to add TextCoordinates to map the VisualBrush to the Mesh.

To apply the texture to the "back" of the we need to "flip" the TextureCoordinates horizontally around the Y axis to match the way we previously changed the TriangleIndices.
