Hi,
Since I started this thread, I would like to relate
back some of my experiences following the people's
advice (for which I am thankful).
1. Detach/Re-attach. Predictably, this works but for
some reason this was slower than the setVisible()
alternative (3).
2. Make Bounds small or empty, thus excluding the
object. For some reason this _did not_ work for me.
Even after setting bounds AutoCompute to false.
Perhaps I'm still missing something here.
3. Using setVisible on a RenderingAttribute object.
This worked like charm. First, it yeilded the most
concise code, since if you have a boolean flag for
keeping track of the object's visibility you can use
setVisible(false). Second, this seemed much crisper
(i.e. more responsive) than 1.
4. Switch Node. Haven't used it yet. Seems like a
robust alternative.
Thanks for all responses!
Dola
