John,
The only outstanding bug we've on picking util. in 1.2FCS is :
BugId 4336095 : Picking using GEOMETRY_INTERECT_INFO fail on strip/fan geometry.
This bug fail to check for intersection on the last triangle in the geometry.
It will be fixed in the next Java 3D release.
If you think you've found a new picking bug, please send us a test program.
We appreciate your support and feedback on Java 3D. Keep it coming!
Thanks,
Chien Yang
Java 3D Team.
