    Hi all,

    I want to create multiple floattexts during runtime on a Scrollgroup/VGroupV, so some of them are not visible. The floattexts that are initially visible are rendered correctly but when I scroll down to the other floattexts the text is not displayed, they are empty. I have to resize the window before the text is rendered.

    I create the Scrollgroup with

    Code:

    Child, ScrollgroupObject, 
    MUIA_Scrollgroup_Contents, content = VGroupV, VirtualFrame, 
    End,
    End,


    and add in a loop this

    Code:

    Object *v = (Object*)HGroup,
    GroupFrameT(date),
    Child, FloattextObject,
    MUIA_Floattext_Text, text,
    End,
    End;


    with this command

    Code:

    DoMethod(content,OM_ADDMEMBER, v);


    This way I add 10 - 20 of (different) v.

    You should call MUIM_Group_InitChange method on a group before adding objects to it dynamically, then MUIM_Group_ExitChange after they are added.

    I'm sorry, fogot to mention that I call that before the loop starts and after it ends.

    Kinda remember having a similar problem with poppen or coloradjust where a setattrs on hidden wouldnt update the gfx.
    AFAIR there were 2 options either set those attributes at object creation or force a redraw directly after setattrs.

    I tried that redraw but I assume I did it not correctly. How should I do that? Btw. NFloattext works.
