[Paraview] How to simply "Reload" a data file

[Michael Jackson]

I was hoping that ParaView just had something built in. I would rather not have to create a plugin and distribute that along side my own software and to keep up on builds for all the various OS's and all of that. i tried that for a while and I just could not keep up.

So either I am the only person who has asked for this or there is some over riding reason in the design of ParView why this type of functionality is not in ParaView.

Thanks
