CSoPathSwitch | Traverses only when current path matches a configurable path.FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS: |

In addition to picking out a single child for traversal, it is also possible to flip all children on or off for traversal |
CSoBlinker | Cycling switch node.This switch node cycles its children SoBlinker::speed number of times per second. If the node has only one child, it will be cycled on and off. Cycling can be turned off using the SoBlinker::on field, and the node then behaves like a normal SoSwitch node |
CSoTransformSeparator | Group node preserving the current transformations.This node works like the SoSeparator group node, except that it only stores and restores the current model matrix transformation.

►CSoSensor | Abstract base class for all sensors.Sensors is a mechanism in Coin for scheduling jobs to be run upon specific events. The events in question could be particular points in time, or changes to entities in the scene graph |
►CSoDelayQueueSensor | Abstract base class for priority scheduled sensors.Delay queue sensors are invoked upon various events not related to time occurrences. See documentation of subclasses to see which types of events can be surveilled by the builtin sensor types |
►CSoDataSensor | Abstract base class for sensors monitoring changes in a scene graph.If you need to know when a particular entity (as a field or a node) changes, subclasses of SoDataSensor can be used to monitor the entity and notify you when it changes |
CSoFieldSensor | Detects changes to a field.Attach a field to a sensor of this type to put it under surveillance, so you can act upon changes to the field |
CSoNodeSensor | Detects changes to nodes.Attach a node to a sensor of this type to put it under surveillance, so you can act upon changes to the node |

CSoIdleSensor | Sensor which will trigger as soon as the application is idle.An SoIdleSensor differs from an SoOneShotSensor in that it will not trigger if the delay queue processing is occurring due to the delay queue timeout, but only when the application is idle |
CSoOneShotSensor | Sensor which will trigger once.Since SoOneShotSensor is a subclass of SoDelayQueueSensor, it will trigger as soon as either the run-time system is idle, or if it is continually busy it will trigger within a fixed amount of time (this is by default 1/12th of a second, see SoSensorManager::setDelaySensorTimeout()) |
►CSoTimerQueueSensor | Abstract base class for sensors triggering on certain timer events.Timer sensors triggers upon specific points in time |
CSoAlarmSensor | Sensor which will trigger once at a specified time.SoAlarmSensor provides a convenient way of setting up triggers for jobs which should be executed only once when they are scheduled |
CSoTimerSensor | Sensor which will trigger at given intervals.Use sensors of this class when you want a job repeated at a certain interval, without explicitly needing to reschedule the sensor (i.e. SoTimerSensor automatically re-schedules itself after it has been triggered) |
CSoSensorManager | Handles the sensor queues.There are two major sensor types in Coin, "delay" sensors and "timer" sensors: |
CSoState | Manages the Coin scenegraph traversal state data.The SoState class is used by actions derived from the SoAction class. It manages the scenegraph state as stacks of elements (ie instances of classes derived from SoElement) |
CSoTexture2 | Used to map a 2D texture onto subsequent geometry in the scenegraph.Shape nodes within the scope of SoTexture2 nodes in the scenegraph (ie below the same SoSeparator and to the righthand side of the SoTexture2) will have the texture applied according to each shape type's individual characteristics. See the documentation of the various shape types (SoFaceSet, SoCube, SoSphere, etc etc) for information about the specifics of how the textures will be applied |
CSoTexture3 | Used to map a 3D texture onto geometry.Shape nodes within the scope of SoTexture3 nodes in the scenegraph (ie below the same SoSeparator and to the righthand side of the SoTexture3) will have the texture applied according to each shape type's individual characteristics. See the documentation of the various shape types (SoFaceSet, SoCube, SoSphere, etc etc) for information about the specifics of how the textures will be applied. An SoTexture3 node will override any previous encountered SoTexture2 nodes and vice versa. Mixing of SoTexture3 and SoTextureCoordinate2 (or the other way around) is legal, but the third texture coordinate component will be ignored (set to 0.0) |
CSoTextureCubeMap | Used to map a cube map onto subsequent shape nodes.Shape nodes within the scope of SoTextureCubeMap nodes in the scenegraph (ie below the same SoSeparator and to the righthand side of the SoTextureCubeMap) will have the texture applied according to each shape type's individual characteristics. See the documentation of the various shape types (SoFaceSet, SoCube, SoSphere, etc etc) for information about the specifics of how the textures will be applied |
CSoType | Basis for the run-time type system in Coin.Many of the classes in the Coin library must have their type information registered before any instances are created (including, but not limited to: engines, nodes, fields, actions, nodekits and manipulators). The use of SoType to store this information provides lots of various functionality for working with class hierarchies, comparing class types, instantiating objects from classnames, etc etc |
