When setting object attributes in a macro or command line,
the change will become effective only when the pad/canvas
is redrawn. You can force a Redraw of the canvas/pad with
pad->Modified()
When you type <CR>, Root scans all canvases/pads. Pads that have
been deeclared "Modified" are redrawn.
This operation is automatic when an attribute is set via the mouse
because Root knows in which canvas you are operating.
