Basti,
You beat me to it, I was just typing out the same commnet.

Mode in the constructor only accepts a single value
 ROTATE_ABOUT_AXIS, ROTATE_ABOUT_POINT, or ROTATE_NONE
which is not a bitwise flag.

The capability bit settings should be sent to setCapabilities

So this
int mode = OrientedShape3D.ROTATE_ABOUT_POINT
            | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_WRITE | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_READ
            | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_WRITE | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_READ
            | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_POINT_WRITE | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_POINT_READ
            | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_AXIS_WRITE | OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_AXIS_READ;
        //int mode = 0;
       
        Appearance appBlue = new Appearance();
        this.shape = new OrientedShape3D(text3D, appBlue, mode, new Point3f(0.0f,0.0f,0.0f));

should be

int mode = OrientedShape3D.ROTATE_ABOUT_POINT );
       
Appearance appBlue = new Appearance();
this.shape = new OrientedShape3D(text3D, appBlue, mode, new Point3f(0.0f,0.0f,0.0f));
 /**
     * Sets the specified capability bit.  Note that only one capability bit
     * may be set per method invocation--capability bits cannot be ORed
     * together.
     * @param bit the bit to set
     * @exception RestrictedAccessException if this object is part of live
     * or compiled scene graph
     */
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_WRITE);
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_READ);
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_WRITE );
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_MODE_READ);
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_POINT_WRITE );
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_POINT_READ);
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_AXIS_WRITE );
this.shape.setCapability( OrientedShape3D.ALLOW_AXIS_READ);



Which is annoyingly long winded, I've never noticed the single bit per call requirement.
