Hi Alex, is there a (simple) way to reset element's shape? When I add a new control point to RTMultiLine I need the trachelShape to be updated accordingly, however it is created only once and I don't see any way how to reset it apart from completely removing the element from canvas and recreating it.
I tried subclassing RTEdge (and altering RTElement>>addConnectedEdge: assert to isKindOf:) and setting trachelShape to nil, however that wasn't enough anyway since the shape is apparently also stored also elsewhere (TRCanvas I would assume). So do I have to remove it and re-add it or am I missing something? Also, is there some document(atiton) explaining how all the things interact together (Roassal, Trachel, updates, redraws, ...) or is source code the only thing at the moment?
