Remarks

An OIV.Inventor.Misc.SoState collects and holds state while traversing a scene graph. A state is composed of a variety of elements, each of which holds some specific information, such as coordinates or diffuse color of the surface material.

Each element is stored in its own stack so that save and restore can be implemented as push and pop. These stack operations are performed lazily, so that pushing of a value occurs only when the value would be overwritten, for efficiency.
