I think some of the GUI object API calls do this, IIRC. But I barely know anything about the GUI object API. It would be great to have that stuff added to the Externals HOWTO.

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a way to force an object to redraw itself (other than by moving it)?

For example, I have attached the code for a simple object, which instantiates itself with the number of inlets and outlets given by its creation argument. If I call its del method, the in/outlets are deleted, but the visual representation of the object retains them until it is moved. When it is moved, the in/outlets are detached from the object but remain on the canvas! When the add method is called, the in/outlets are created, but again I have to move the object to see them. At this point previously deleted in/outlets disappear from the canvas...

Any suggestions..?
