MDI douments (entupd)

hello all,

working in MDI,
when i draw objects from my active document
to another document in the same set...i.e
(vla-get-Documents (vlax-get-Acad-Object))
the object shows as soon as the user makes the document active,
but when i change some attribute value in the other document...i.e
(vlax-for itm (vla-get-modelspace <other doc>
(if (and (= (vla-get-objectname itm) "AcDbBlockReference")
(= (vla-get-hasattributes itm) ':vlax-true))
(progn
(setq atts (vla-getattributes itm))
(foreach att (vlax-safearray->list (vlax-variant-value atts))
(vla-put-textstring att "STRING") ) ) )) )
then the change will only show, after i make that document
active and a regen,
i guess i am looking for the (entupd) equivalent in ActiveX,
can somebody help

TIA

vla-update ?

 

that is what i thought, it works in the active doc,
but not in another doc, i still have to do a regen,
i tried using sendcommand, it complicated things more

thanks

 

Have you tried vla-regen?

 

Jason,
actually, it does work,
sometimes, the simplest solution
is the last to be looked at...
thanks

Glad I could help.
