DESCRIPTION

       This node defines a set of 3D coordinates to be  used  by  subsequent  vertex-based  shape
       nodes  (those  derived  from SoVertexShape) or shape nodes that use them as control points
       (such as NURBS curves and surfaces). This node does not produce a  visible  result  during
       rendering;  it  simply  replaces  the  current  coordinates  in  the  rendering  state for
       subsequent nodes to use.

FIELDS

     SoMFVec3f           point
          Coordinate point(s).

METHODS

                         SoCoordinate3()
          Creates a coordinate node with default settings.

     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
          Returns type identifier for this class.

ACTION BEHAVIOR

       SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction, SoRayPickAction
          Sets coordinates in current traversal state.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS

          point  0 0 0
