DESCRIPTION
     The SoAppearanceKit is used to create a group of property nodes that will
     be used to affect subsequent shape nodes or nodekits in the scene graph.

     This nodekit defines seven new parts: lightModel, environment, drawStyle,
     material, complexity, texture2, and font. Note that it does not include
     binding nodes such as SoMaterialBinding.

     SoAppearanceKit is derived from SoBaseKit and thus also includes a
     callbackList part for adding callback nodes.

PARTS
     (SoLightModel)      lightModel
          An SoLightModel node that affects any shapes that follow this
          nodekit in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.
     (SoEnvironment)     environment
          An SoEnvironment node that affects any nodes that follow this
          nodekit in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.

     (SoDrawStyle)       drawStyle
          An SoDrawStyle node that affects any shapes that follow this nodekit
          in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.

     (SoMaterial)        material
          An SoMaterial node that affects any shapes that follow this nodekit
          in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.

     (SoComplexity)      complexity
          An SoComplexity node that affects any shapes that follow this
          nodekit in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.

     (SoTexture2)        texture2
          An SoTexture2 node that affects any shapes that follow this nodekit
          in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.

     (SoFont)            font
          An SoFont node that affects any text nodes that follow this nodekit
          in the scene graph. This part is NULL by default.


METHODS
                         SoAppearanceKit()
          Constructor.

     static const SoNodekitCatalog *
                         getClassNodekitCatalog() const
          Returns the SoNodekitCatalog for this class

     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
          Returns type identifier for this class.
