How can I have an ObjectPlugin using GetContour()
to always refresh/update?
I have a simple spline generator that makes a spline
and set its points to the points of a point object.
(Similar to the TracerObject in a simple way)
The issue is that when I move any of the points of
the polygon object, the "source", the generated spline does
not update what ever I try.
It only updates if I click something in its AM.
Thing is, if I use GetVirtualObjects() instead, it updates
without problem. (Thou I then don't get a usable spline in return
as it's not seen as a spline object by ie Mograph stuff, Cloners, MoSpline etc)
Below is the very basic what I do and what parts I use.
Where/how do I tell GetCountour not cache itself?
