I want a geometry and use it in more than one place, but have different
attributes for that.

To be more precise, I have a bunch of GeoStates, and they point to the
same Geode, and that Geode has just one GeoSet. A bunch of DCSs connect
to the Geodes and hence I get a bunch of geometries. BUT, I want
different attributes (materials and textures) for these. This seems to
be simple impossible with Performer, juse because of
geoset->setGState(gstate) call.

If I don't have the above call, then none of my objects have any
attributes.

Is there a way around this?

Thanks in advance for any help.
