I'm working with a dynamic scene and I'm&nbsp;retaining the&nbsp;RTCGeometry but not the&nbsp;geomID, per docs:</P><BLOCKQUOTE><P>Best store the geometry handle inside your scene representation (and release it in the destructor) and access the handle directly instead of calling&nbsp;rtcGetGeometry.</P></BLOCKQUOTE><P><BR />It wouldn't be a big deal to retain the&nbsp;geomID as well if necessary, this question is more out of curiosity.
