This message goes to the Performer development team.
I recently needed to update a custom made performer loader fro morph
targets.
The loader uses the pfdBuilder for constructing the performer scene
graph.
Unfortunately pfdBuilder doeas some optimizations like sharing
Normals/Colors/Tex Coords
which I wanted to disable in order to get morphing working.

pfdGeoBuilder which is called by pfdBuilder to construct the triangles
called that functionality
of sharing COLLAPSING and also had a flag to disable it.
To disable/enable that functionality the pfdGeoBldrMode with mode set
to PFDGBLDR_COLLAPSE_ATTRS
could be called.
Unfortunately the pfdBuilder does not expose this mode so it can not be
set. There are also some other modes
which pfdGeoBuilder Supports and are not exposed by pfdBuilder.
I suggest to update pfdBuilder to reflect this since I was forced to use
my own copy of pfdBuilder.

Cheers
