Evas Textblock

Hello, I trying to display on TV a text with evas textblock, but it does not work. I don't know if I am doing it wrong, but first I add the textblock to the parent window (with evas_object_textblock_add), I set the text (through evas_object_textblock_text_markup_set) and show on the screen (with evas_object_show). There are no code snippets in the docs about textblock, only descriptions what it is and for each function, so I can't see if I need to change something. 

What I can say is that elm_flux_textbox texts'' display on TV normally. 

May somebody help me, please?

One common reason a `TextBlock` might not display is if it doesn’t have a size or is positioned outside the visible area of the screen. Make sure you specify both the size and position of the `TextBlock` after adding it to the parent window.

You can fix it as follows:

evas_object_move(textblock, x_position, y_position); // Set the position
evas_object_resize(textblock, width, height); // Set the size
