Hi Alex, there is a thread from around 2 years ago that proposed a couple of solutions. Especially if you are using a custom reader plugin this provides for a clean and user-friendly approach:

It is located here: https://github.com/richti83/ParaView_Reader_for_LIGGGHTS/blob/master/python_macros/update.py Feel free to use this as a starting point. Best, Christian.

What is the best way to reload the file/get the new data from the file? So far my google searches have yielded this<http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/openfoam-paraview/78129-update-data-paraview.html#post446239> as the best result, but it seems quite clumsy. I've seen in other places people recommend clicking on "update gui", but I don't see that button available anywhere in my version of paraview. Refresh times also doesn't seem to work. As you can tell, I'm a new paraview user!
