[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Status of reload button?

[Scott, W Alan]

Seb/ Christoph,

I may be wrong, and there may be ways to get around it (such as the discussion in the mailing list below), but I believe that this feature has to be done on a reader by reader basis.  If so, it isn't a trivial amount of work.  Further, there are readers that do have this feature - such as the Exodus reader.

There was a talk about that feature in the mailing list with a work around here:

http://paraview.markmail.org/thread/riu2by4yof2m4e5s#query:+page:1+mid:7dg2jctve32oijwe+state:results

But some reader do have some optimized internal caching which will prevent this trick to work. But maybe, for the reader that you are interested in, that might be good enough...

Dear ParaView crew,
congratulations on your 4.1 release, I am looking forward to give it and
its new features a try.

Sadly, once more I am missing the long awaited (5 years [1]), highly
demanded (203 votes on uservoice [2]), but still back locked [3] reload
button.
Can you give an official statement whether this is planned for the near
future? Is there a technical or other reason that makes this button so
difficult to implement? How about a fund raising campaign to get some
money for its development? I am sure there are plenty of bugged users
willing to sponsor the reload button.

Love your work,
Christoph
