Hi Dola:
I think the answer will depend on how your scene graph is built relative
to what is considered an "object".
I tried the detach/re-attach method but didn't like the result ... since
I built a single object using many shapes, when I detached one shape at a time
from the object, I saw portion of the object disappear and that was too weird.
I ended up using the switch method since I was able to put all the
shapes belonging to a single object into a switch node, the object disappeared
and reappeared in a single move and that is what I wanted. The performance was
also better using this method.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Mona
