  DzObject::currentShapeSwitched()
  DzObject::materialListChanged()

  Thank you Rob, I'll try that.

  The signal currentShapeSwitched() doesn't seem to be triggered when the geometry switching happens.

  I have added the following in a function:

  connect(obj, SIGNAL(currentShapeSwitched()), this, SLOT(shapeSwitchHandler()));

  With this handler:

  void Reality_DS::shapeSwitchHandler() {
  RE_LOG_INFO() << "Shape shifted!";<br /> }

  Where RE_LOG_INFO() is my logging stream and nothing happens when I switch the shape. I have a gatling gun from ShareGC that has several pose presets that switch wheels for legs and so on and then any of those presets is applied no call to the shapeSwitchHandler() function happens.

  Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

  I am guessing that gatlin gun uses alternate geometry?

  The materialListChanged signal is triggered for alternate geometry, but shape change does not for alternate geometry.

  Looks like you are going to have to connect to all the geomControl's on alternate geometries(a somewhat rare thing). It should look something like the following. I have not check it though.

  
    if( DzLegacyFigure* figure = qobject_cast(node) ){
     DzLegacyAlternateGeometryIterator iter = figure->alternateGeometryIterator();
     while( iter.hasNext() ){
      DzLegacyAlternateGeometry* geom = iter.next();
      connect(geom->getObject()->getGeometryControl(), SIGNAL(currentValueChanged()), yourObject, SLOT(shapeSwitchHandler()));
     }
    }
