Hi, all:

I have two questions about OrientedShape3D.

OrientedShape3D works beautifully for me until I put it in the SharedGroup.
I am creating virtual forest. I created different tree shapes using
SharedGroup with OrientedShape3D. The similar trees will be linked to the
corresponding tree shape object. My problem is that some of the trees are
turned away from the viewer.

Could anyone tell me how java3d handles OrientedShape3D leaf inside
SharedGroup? Since the nodes linked to the SharedGroup will be in different
locations in the 3D scene, the OrientedShape3D has to find its linking node
location and turns towards the viewer. If it is not the way it should be,
is there any way to get around it?

Another question: Has the OrientedShape3D picking bug be solved in version 1.3?

Thanks a lot!
