Probably everyone on this list who uses Org code blocks to generate graphics has something in their configuration file that refreshes the image in the buffer when its code block is run and the image is regenerated. What is the (most) correct way to do that?
I used to have these in my init, copied in years ago when I first started using Org: # ----- no longer used (add-hook 'org-babel-after-execute-hook 'org-redisplay-inline-images) (add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (org-toggle-inline-images))) # ----- Both of these are obsolete in Org 9.8. I think they were conflicting and causing me trouble with a big Org file that has a lot of tables and R in it. Now I have: # ----- (setq org-display-inline-images t) ;; Enable images in buffers (setq org-startup-with-inline-images nil) ;; Don't show them automatically, can use #+startup: inlineimages # ----- And I use this hook. Is this the right way to do it? # ----- (add-hook 'org-babel-after-execute-hook 'org-link-preview-refresh) # ----- I think that refreshes all the images in the buffer, but what if I just want it to refresh the one that was just changed, the one made by the code block where I just hit C-c C-c? This isn't documented in the manual, and looking around on the web I see a lot of old copied-and-pasted code. I'm happy to try to update the manual with how to do this.
