Dear All, Has anyone had problems with setting a new appearance for the Sun Sphere class. I set the Primitive Sphere attributes to ENABLE_APPEARANCE_MODIFY but still get a restricted access exception. I have even tried creating a new Appearance when I create the Sphere straight away but to no avail. Any enlightenment much appreciated.
