Hi Miguel, Overriding traverse() is possible, it's also possible to add a callback via node->addCullCallback(myCallback) which is essentially the same just via a callback object that can be reused for multiple nodes (of possibly different types). I would usually go with callbacks as they are a little more flexible but both methods are fine. From there if it's a cull visitor you can just cast it:
Code: osgUtil::CullVisitor* cv = static_cast<osgUtil::CullVisitor*>(nv) and get all the info you need from the CullVisitor, its Camera, etc. It should be noted that OSG can (but does not by default) run culling for multiple cameras simultaneously, with the CullThreadPerCamera threading mode. If this is the case, making modifications to a subgraph like setNodeMask(), changing uniform's etc. is going to create race conditions. This can be worked around by not modifying the scene graph with your changes, but instead push them onto the active CullVisitor only (e.g. by pushing a StateSet with new state, or push a new ModelViewMatrix - have a look at the CullVisitor's push/popStateSet and push/PopModelViewMatrix). I would argue this is the cleaner way in any case, as the act of viewing a scene should not fundamentally change it (unless we're talking about quantum mechanics ;) ). > > 1) to access view width and height in pixels (Viewport in pixels) and pass > them to a specific node shader as uniforms, > This part is easy - the CullVisitor has the Camera and the Camera has a Viewport. > > 2) Check some View attributes depending on which I show or hide the child > nodes.

You might be able to use dynamic_cast's to get at the View regardless, but I'd suggest try using masks instead to differentiate views (e.g. the Camera's CullMask).
