[SOLVED] Show/Hide object in coin3d

[apeltauer]

Hi all,

i would like to hide and show again a SoNode in coin3d.
To create a line with coin i use the root SoSeparator from the gui ViewProvider and add a new child. The child is my line with material and position.
This works fine and i can see the line.
Now i want to hide the line, and show it later again. Since today i always deleting the node when i wanted to hide it. And created new when showing it. But when the object is not just a line this is time consumption. So i want to hide the object and the later show it again. But i have not found a solution to disable/hide the node. Can anyone give me a hint where i need to search?

You can put your nodes under a Switch :

Code: Select all

my_switch = coin.SoSwitch()
# show children
my_switch.whichChild = coin.SO_SWITCH_ALL
# hide children
my_switch.whichChild = coin.SO_SWITCH_NONE

works like a charm....
