+ * A container for a single dynamic part of a dynamic-enabled variable of a\r
+ * scene graph node. Dynamic-enabled means a variable that potentially has two\r
+ * values: one static (~ default) and one dynamic. If the dynamic part has a\r
+ * non-null value it should always be used instead of the static value. Use\r
+ * {@link #getActiveValue()} to get the current variable value to follow this\r
+ * policy in your client code.\r
+ * \r
+ * <p>\r
+ * Variables generally determine the way a node gets rendered.\r
