Hi Phelim,
you have to identify the Shape3D node that contains the geometry you
want to map
the texture to. I don't know about your original file format, but e.g.
in
VRML you can attach labels to single nodes and reference the equivalent
nodes
in Java3D. The named objects are collected in a hashtable.
If you can title the geometry in the source file, try this:
Hashtable namedObjects = s.getNamedObjects();
Shape3D node = (Shape3D) namedObjects.get( "yourName");
node.setAppearance( app);
hope that helps
regards
Britt
