Hi Brian,
So you mean do something like this?
geode->setBound (bsphere,PFBOUND_DYNAMIC);
geode->setBound (bsphere,PFBOUND_STATIC);
Is it normal for static bounds to not propagate up the scene graph or is
this a "feature"?
Thanks,
Mark Acosta

Hi Mark,
It looks like you need to set the mode to PFBOUND_DYNAMIC then setBound
to a new bsphere to have it propagate up the chain.
