Abstract
We prove that if $\varrho_H$ and $\delta$ are the Hausdorff metric and the radial metric on the space $\mathcal{S}^n$ of star bodies in $\mathbb R $, with 0 in the kernel and with radial function positive and continuous, then a family $\mathcal{A} \subset \mathcal{S}^n$ that is meager with respect to $\varrho_H$ need not be meager with respect to $\delta$. Further, we show that both the family of fractal star bodies and its complement are dense in $\mathcal{S}^n$ with respect to $\delta$.
