Page UpDate problems

ktkoh

My script creates a new page and adds several views of a component then finishes with

Sketchup.active_model.active_view.camera.perspective = false
        Sketchup.send_action "viewFront;"
        Sketchup.send_action "viewZoomExtents;"
        Sketchup.send_action "pageUpdate;"

However it often does not update the page view. If I select the page then the view shows as expected so the actions were applied except for the final update of the view.

I had seen a comment here about how to fix this and had copied the info but now that I want to use it it's not where I can find it. Any Suggestions??

Just in case, (think you already done but...) did you try
Sketchup.active_model.active_view.refresh ?

Have you tried using the methods on the View and Camera object directly instead of the send_actions?

send_actions isn't the best to use ... personally I wish they weren't there. There should be proper API methods for them instead.

The view refresh worked. Thanks.

As I recall from the last build cycle (2013,) the Sketchup::Page and Sketchup::Pages classes had issues filed on them regarding updates not working correctly. (As well as a bunch of feature addtions, by myself.)
