Thanks, my fellow graphics member, Manu!

However, it still complains with the same exception. (I even tried
PickTool.setCapabilities method.)

Can someone share an excerpt of code that has the picking a 3d object working?

Thank you,

Kovalan
Ps. Mine is as follows:

// Main:
pickCanvas = new PickCanvas(canvas, scene);
pickCanvas.setMode(PickTool.GEOMETRY );
pickCanvas.setTolerance(4.0f);

canvas.addMouseListener( new MouseClicked() );

// 3d Object creation
box.setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );
box.getShape(Box.BACK).setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );
box.getShape(Box.BOTTOM).setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );
box.getShape(Box.FRONT).setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );
box.getShape(Box.LEFT).setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );
box.getShape(Box.RIGHT).setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );
box.getShape(Box.TOP).setCapability( Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT );

// MouseClicked
class MouseClicked extends java.awt.event.MouseAdapter {
        public void mouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent e) {
            super.mouseClicked(e);
            PickResult[] results = null;
            try {
                pickCanvas.setShapeLocation(e);
                results = pickCanvas.pickAll();
            }
            catch ( Exception err ) {
                err.printStackTrace();
                System.out.println( "Err: Not pickable??" );
            }
            if ( results != null )
                System.out.println( "Picked!" );
            else
                System.out.println( "Nothing happened!" );
        }
 }

Hi Kovalan,

If you want to pick using geometry (USE_GEOMETRY), you have to add the
capability Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT to the appropriate Geometry object (I
guess this is causing the "no capability to allow intersect" exception).

Regards,
Manu.
