hello,
You probably have to set the allow_geometry_read capability of your shape.
Note you effectively have to do that on the shape and not on the primitive object
like I notice you do.
so you have to do something like this :
cylinder.getShape().setCapability(Shape3D.ALLOW_GEOMETRY_READ);
maybe you'll also have to set the allow_intersect cap of your geometry
cylinder.getShape().getGeometry().setCapability(Geometry.ALLOW_INTERSECT);
greets,
mattie
