java3d viewplatform_Attach an object to the view platform in Java3D

In my Java3D application, I have a movable viewing platform (thanks to "OrbitBehavior" and "KeyNavigatorBehavior" behaviors for example) so I can change my point of view to the scene.

Now, I would like to add an object which is "static" over my view, i.e. always viewed the same way when I move my view (for example, like the gun of the player in a FPS).

By now, I tried the 2 following approaches to this problem, but none of them worked.

1/ Attach directly my object to the ViewingPlatform (via a dedicated BranchGroup plus a TransformGroup).

In this case, my object is simply not displayed (I'm absolutely not sure it's allowed to perform such an operation actually...). This is this part of my code:

Code : (with view the ViewingPlatform)

BranchGroup fixedBG = new BranchGroup();

TransformGroup fixedTG = new TransformGroup();

fixedTG.setCapability(TransformGroup.ALLOW_TRANSFORM_READ);

fixedTG.setCapability(TransformGroup.ALLOW_TRANSFORM_WRITE);

Transform3D transfo = new Transform3D();

transfo.setTranslation(new Vector3f(0.2f, 0.0f, -1.0f));

fixedTG.setTransform(transfo);

ColorCube fixedCube = new ColorCube(0.2);

fixedTG.addChild(fixedCube);

view.addChild(fixedBG);

2/ Apply to my object the same transformation (rotation + translation ; retrieved via getTransform() on getViewPlatformTransform() - I also tried something more complex here, with operations between these transformations and initial positions of view PF and object) as viewing platform's one. I do all this in real time, with a dedicated behavior (same wake-up conditions as behaviors modifying the view location).

Here, my object disappears when I move the view, and then appears again sometimes, when I use the zoom/de-zoom action of the KeyNavigator (butin a really unstable way).

I'm sure that what I'm trying to do is doable and probably quite simple, but now, I don't have a clue...

Thanks by advance for your help
