Ok. I understand, thanks. Now, I would like to ask some suggestions about the right approach to implement mouse interactions with a 3D menu and 3D menu items.
I guess that basically, considering that Text is not a geode :) the easiest solution would be to have a group (representing the menu) to which I would attach as many geodes as the menu items (so one geode <--> one menu item) ...so it would be easy to retriveve and identify the picked menu item ... otherwise if I would use a single geode and attach many Text objects to it, then I should implement some method to cycle through the geode's drawables and to identify the right drawable menu item...it looks like this approach is much more complicated...what do you think?
