Hi!

I am writing a Command, that is used to convert an object from one representation to another one. I create the new representation, insert it into the Document and delete the original one. After I did that, the Document does not redraw. How do I trigger a Redraw in a BaseDocument? I tried calling doc->Message(MSG_UPDATE).

You are using 'oldobj->Remove()' before deleting the original one, right?

If that doesn't work, you may also want to call EventAdd().

In COFFEE this is accomplished using GeEventAdd(REDRAW_ALL);
I think there's a similar instruction in C++ SDK.
Hope this helps...

That would be EventAdd(). EventAdd(EVENT_FORCEREDRAW) would be the equivalent instruction in C++ SDK.
