Actually, problem is that when clicking on a Text object, it is picked
correctly (...I mean that the intersector manages to find it...) but when I
cycle through the retrieved NodePath and try to dynamic_cast the current
node to osgText::Text* it always fails, whereas it succeds if casting is
done to osg::Geode* ...so I cannot get any reference to the Text object that
actually was picked but just to its parent Geode.

Hi Alessandro,

The PolytopeIntersector should work on Text, albeit with the same
caveats as normal geometry w.r.t point/vs interior picking as the
code isn't yet complete.
