If you change color to blue you may be see light effect, but reflection white because of default material Specular color is white.   To understand how light model work in Java3D read this: http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/java3d/j3d_tutorial_ch6.pdf   Vladimir A.

The first thing I do is to set the Appearance of an object. I create a new Appearance, then I create a new Material and set the color of the material with setAmbientColor, setDifusseColor and setEmissiveColor to the color I have chosen. When I add a light to the scene, for example a red light, the effect over the object (for ex. a sphere with white appearance) is that nothing is seen. If I set the sphere's color to another one (blue) then the light appears, but the reflection is always white... What am I doing bad?   Thanks and cheers.     Dani.
