Java 3D only forces a re-render when something in the scene changes. It might just be that setting the front clip distance doesn't count as "something changing".
Most applications seem to end up with a behaviour that schedules itself to be hit every frame. This means that the renderer has to run as fast as it can. However, this is just a guess, Kev > Hi all, > > I do front clipping of my scene using View.setFrontClipDistance method. > I use a slider to change the clipping distnace so that the user can see > the view getting clipped or getting reappeared when the slider is moved > back. > > After the view is clipped, I add lots of shapes, spheres and cylinders > in my scene.
