Hi Gianulca, If you want your subgaphs to respond to different traversals in different ways then it's best to use node->setNodeMask(mask) and nodevisitor->setTraversalMask(mask) in combination. In your case you could set your "invsible" subgraphs to 0x1, and pick these out with an intersect visitor a mask of 0xffffffff, and a cull mask of 0x2.
