Hi,

I have some geometry that is making use of a VBO. The VBO contains an extremely 
large number of vertices. Similarly, I have an element buffer (EBO) that 
contains a large amount of indices. I need to render some "objects" that 
reference selected vertices of the VBO and selected indices of the EBO, 
sequentially, but under different model-view transformations.

Basically, what I am trying to achieve with OSG is the following OpenGL code:


Code:
glBindBuffer(my_huge_vbo)
glBindBuffer(my_huge_ebo)

glLoadMatrix(...); // transformation 1
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 10, ........, offset_to_EBO_indices_for_object1); 
// draw the first object under transformation 1
glLoadMatrix(...); // transformation 2
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 50, ........, offset_to_EBO_indices_for_object2); 
// draw the first object under transformation 2
glLoadMatrix(...); // transformation 3
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 8, ........, offset_to_EBO_indices_for_object3); 
// draw the first object under transformation 3
and so on



My problem is that if I have the following scene graph (see below), I will have 
many VBO/EBO buffer bindings, which is what I want to avoid.


Code:
- MatrixTransform
  - Geode 
    - Geometry
- MatrixTransform
  - Geode 
    - Geometry
- MatrixTransform
  - Geode 
    - Geometry



Is there a way to manually assign a VBO and an EBO to a geometry? If this is 
the case I could share these across different osg::Geometry object instances.

Regards
Fred
