Another (similar) handy trick - in perfly, set the "Hlight:" button to
Normals (as Jason's instructions), click on the "Show Tree" button in the
GUI, and then hold down the ALT key as you move the mouse atop objects in
the scene. The object normals will appear and the tree display will jump to
that node in the graph.
