When is SceneDraw() called for a GvOperatorData plugin?

I have the following in my GvOperatorData plugin and it never seems to get called..  I never see "SCENE DRAW"  in the console. 

  
  
   
Bool NParticle::SceneDraw(GvNode* bn, BaseDraw* bd, BaseDrawHelp* bh, BaseThread* bt, LONG flags, void* data, ULONG counter){  
    
  GePrint("SCENE DRAW");  
  
  return TRUE;  
}

have a look at the GvNodeMaster class. It has a function AddToDrawList which is described as follows:

Bool AddToDrawList(GvNode* bn, void** data = NULL, LONG data_size = 0);

Adds a node the an internal list of nodes that want to have GvOperatorData::SceneDraw() called during the next internal draw.

Well I think I have it figured out.  In the InitCalculation() I put...

  
bn->GetNodeMaster()->AddToDrawList(bn, NULL, 0);  

and now SceneDraw is called.. Thanks for the tip.
