Thank you for your suggestion :) I tried it and noticed some differences. Comparing the .osg files I noticed that, while in the starting .osg file I had 'MatrixTransform' nodes, in the final .osg file those nodes are converted to 'Group' nodes...as you already told, the nodes names are kept but, on the other hand, nodes descriptions are discarded.
Actually both these behaviours are really a problem for my application because I have to look for some nodes searching by name (and this is ok), but I also need to dynamic_cast the found nodes to MatrixTransform to get the nodes transforms (and this will fail) and then I also need to retrieve some information that I previously stored in the node's description field (which is not available anymore).
