I have a script that is updating a stencil, and is run multiple time, with different text on the shape each time. My problem seems to be, that the first two (or sometimes three) executions of the script will reflect the updated stencil immediately in the GUI of OG, but later executions will require a quit/restart in order for the changes to be visible.

Restarting OG after each update is obviously going to be a pain (especially as the script will ultimately be executed from inside a java application that is slow enough as it is..), so I am hoping that there is just something I don't understand at play here.

property stencilName : "experiments_Accidents.gstencil"
property appSupportPath : path to application support from user domain
property stencilSaveName : ((appSupportPath as text) & "OmniGraffle:Stencils:" & stencilName)
on determineOrigin(myDocument)
	set xpos to 18
	set ypos to 15
	tell application "OmniGraffle Professional 5"
		tell front canvas of myDocument
			set myAccidents to graphics whose value of user data item "myKind" is "Accident"
			repeat with _a in myAccidents
				set org to origin of _a
				set y0 to item 2 of org
				if (y0 > ypos) then set ypos to y0
			end repeat
			set i to (length of myAccidents) + 1
			if (i > 1) then
				set xpos to xpos + ((i - 1) mod 6) * (54.0 + 5.0)
				if (i mod 6 is equal to 1) then
					set ypos to ypos + 54.0 + 5.0
					set xpos to 18
				end if
			end if
		end tell
	end tell
	return {xpos, ypos}
end determineOrigin
