Detailed Description

SoPathSwitch is a group node that traverses its children only if the current traversal path matches the SoPath in the path field. This can be used, for example, to affect only one instance of a subgraph. The path field contains the path up to (but not including) the SoPathSwitch. The path need not go all the way back to the root; if it does not, then only the number of ancestors that are in the path are compared to see if the children should be traversed. A NULL path means that the children are never traversed.

Action Behavior
SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction, SoGetBoundingBoxAction, SoRayPickAction, SoHandleEventAction
Traverses the children if the paths match.
