Hi, I've just started working in Java3D and I wonder if anyone can answer any of these questions. Firstly can you link a property from one node to another, for example it would be nice to set a relationship between one transform group and another so if the transform changes the second one will become adjusted by the same difference. How do you cope with a situation where you want to add a transform group to a switch that controls the visibility of objects of that type but you also need to add the transform group to another transform group to handle positioning. The scenario is that I have a map showing nodes each of which has a label. I can position the label by adding it to the TG of the parent node but this means I can't added to a global branch label switch so that I can turn all node labels on and off. What is the best way to show text on the map? I had hoped I'd be able to use Swing but of course I found out the hard way that Canvas3D extends Canvas so all Swing components get hidden by the platform level painting in the Canvas3D object. Thanks in advance for any help you can give. The lack of detailed technical info available for Java3D at present is giving me quite some problems as a newcomer.
