DESCRIPTION
     This node determines how subsequent geometry nodes in the scene graph are
     to be picked, as indicated by the style field.

     Note that this is the only way to change the pick behavior of shapes;
     drawing style, complexity, and other rendering-related properties have no
     effect on picking.

FIELDS
     SoSFEnum            style
          Picking style.


METHODS
                         SoPickStyle()
          Creates a pick style node with default settings.

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


ACTION BEHAVIOR
     SoRayPickAction, SoCallbackAction
          Sets the current pick style in the state.


FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS
     PickStyle {
          style  SHAPE
     }
