Hi everyone! i wonder if i found a bug.... i am trying to set the Shininess-value of a Material-Component allthough the ALLOW_COMPONENT_READ and WRITE Capabilities are set getShininess() yields the value that was assigned to the Materialnode at construction time... float shininess = 1f; Material mat = new Material(diffcol, ..., shininess); mat.setCapability(Material.ALLOW_COMPONENT_READ); mat.setCapability(Material.ALLOW_COMPONENT_WRITE); ... shininess = .4f; setShininess(shininess); System.out.println(mat.getShininess()); yields : 1.0 has this bug been fixed already or am i doing something wrong? michy ===================================================================== To subscribe/unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Java 3D Home Page: http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3D/
