Hi there,

I have a performer scene with hundreds of DCSes, which all contain the
same geode.

When implementing picking, I want a single geode to light up, when touched
with a cursor (CAVE wand in my case).

I currently use pfHighlight, and I enable highlighting for the geostates
of the geosets of the selected geode.

Ofcourse, ALL the geometry in my scene lights up, as I reuse a single
piece of geometry in a lot of DCSes.

How can I achieve the desired highlighting without replicating the geometry?

I'm affraid I will have to remove and add children from the affected DCS?

Thanks,

   Bram
