Remarks

OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoMultiPathSwitch is a group node that traverses its children only if the current traversal path matches one of the OIV.Inventor.SoPath specified in the OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoMultiPathSwitch.paths field.

This can be used, for example, to affect only specific instances of a subgraph. The OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoMultiPathSwitch.paths field contains a list of paths up to (but not including) the SoMultiPathsSwitch. The paths need not go all the way back to the root; if they do not, then only the number of ancestors that are in the path are compared to see if the children should be traversed.

An empty OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoMultiPathSwitch.paths (the default) means that no children are traversed.

Effectively this is an extended version of OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoPathSwitch.

Note: This node disables the bounding box cache for all OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoSeparator nodes above it in the scene graph. This may reduce performance when moving the camera and the viewer's auto clip plane adjustment is enabled (the default). (It does not affect render caching.)

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULT

MultiPathSwitch {
paths NULL
}

ACTION BEHAVIOR

OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoGetBoundingBoxAction Traverses the children if the paths match. Disables bounding box caches.

OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoGLRenderAction, OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoCallbackAction, OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoGetBoundingBoxAction, OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoRayPickAction, OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoHandleEventAction Traverses the children if the paths match.
