T2dPath object created by resource isn't rendered in editor

Hi.

I've written a small tool to copy and y-mirror a t2dPath object in the editor. The tool works fine but the created t2dPath object isn't rendered in the editor.

Here's a short video showing the problem:

And here's the code I use to add the new path to the scene:

%lastWindow = ToolManager.getLastWindow();
   if( !isObject( %lastWindow ) || !isObject( %lastWindow.getScenegraph() ) )
      return false;

   %sceneGraph = %lastWindow.getScenegraph();
   %sceneGraph.addToScene(%mirroredPath);

Any ideas how to make the created path visible when it's added to the scene?

Thanks,

Stefan

A bit late, but try resetting the position of the path after you add it:
%sceneGraph.addToScene( %mirroredPath ); 
%mirroredPath.setPosition( %mirroredPath.getPosition() );

Thanks a lot for the response Phillip but unfortunately it doesn't work. I don't need to solve this problem because I can use this tool the way it works now. If anybody wants to track this down, I'd share my script of course :)
