Hi Katja, If you are loading a 3D file, e.g., a VRML file, you can just add a switch node to the base node of the loaded scene graph.

I really appreciate it. My problem is that I want the user to be able to open ANY j3d file e.g. some downloaded or self programed virtual world. That means there is no switch group in that file. All functionality has to build into my application (main window). Unfortunately I can't come up with anything but recompilation (I don't like that either) after I put in the spheres. Is there any other way? Is there any possibility of changing parts of the scenegraph without recompilation from the main application?
