That's the drawback of properties: they aren't what they seem. c.p.b = txt isn't an assignment. It is really c.setBodyString(p,val) which does a lot. Otoh, c.p.v.b = txt just sets v._bodyString, which may be what you want, but probably isn't :-) In general, p.aProperty can be very different than p.v.aProperty. In particular, p.setDirty() is much more expensive than p.v.setDirty(). The former does a redraw, the latter doesn't.
