[Paraview] "Reload Files" Hotkey Acting on Individual Items --- Expected?

[Joel Kulesza]

Colleagues:

In the File menu I would expect that the "Reload Files (F5)" command would
apply to all items in the pipeline browser rather than the one currently
selected or last acted on.  For individual reloading, I would expect to
need to use the right-click approach to "Reload Files."  However, this does
not seem to be the case.  If I open multiple, independent, data files that
I want to plot together, I must select each one in the pipeline browser and
reload it (either via F5 or right-clicking) to see changes.

Am I correct that the "reload files" hotkey only applies to the currently
selected or last used item (a file or collection of time-series files) in
the pipeline browser?  If so, is there a method to reload all items in the
pipeline browser (ideally avoiding the need to select all the files)?  If
not, can this be added as an enhancement request (e.g., menu item/hotkey
for Reload All Files)?

I'm using ParaView 5.4.1 in OS X 10.11.6.

Please contact me with any comments, questions, or concerns.

Thank you,
Joel
