Hi,
I want to change the text string value of a Primitive Text Object. I used the following code.

    
    
    
    
    if(vObj->GetPrimitiveType()==1017) // if TEXT Object  
    {  
       var bc=vObj->GetContainer();  
       bc->SetData(PRIM_TEXT_TEXT, "Change");  
       vObj->SetContainer(bc);  
    }  
    GeEventAdd(DOCUMENT_CHANGED);
    
    
    
    
    GeEventAdd(REDRAW_ALL);  
    

Even though I use GeEventAdd(), I cannot see the new text, still it shows the old text. But from the object manager when I check, it has changed the text with new one. What could be the problem?
