Rob and everyone else,
On a related note then... why is there only BranchGroup.detach() and not a
general Node.detach()? It makes scenes much larger when you have many
shapes, each with it's own BranchGroup to allow the shapes to be detachable!
It would be more convenient to be able to have TransformGroup.detach(),
Shape3D.detach(), etc.

J. Lee,
I made this mistake (and asked this question a few months back).
There is a detach() method in BranchGroup that works fine.
