Hi there,
I dont know how to update a shape in the viewer.
As far as i know there is no EraseShape function, so i added one (dont know
if Thomas has/will? added it to the svn, so see attachment).
To use it, got to ..../site-packages/OCC/Display and backup OCCViewer.py and
add the patched one. Hopefully you can now do display.EraseShape(someshape).
Is a slightly quick and dirty fix, so cannot guarantee anything though.
