Xith3D could indeed help. You can access the GL context that is being used to render the scene allowing to do this sort of mixing. However, obviously it breaks the renderer independance. Alan, when is Aviatrix scheduled (expected?) for release? Are there are details available as yet, for instance, are you trying to conform to the Java3D scenegraph model?
