[Paraview] Status of reload button?
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.

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

Re: [Paraview] Status of reload button?
Hi Scott, thanks for your clarification. I wasn't aware of the fact, that the reload button has to be written for every reader. Now I see that it will be a lot of work to get the reload button. On the other hand, reader by reader this feature could be implemented. I am using the VTK reader and will try Sebastien's work around. Thanks so far. This won't cover the numerious wishes for the reload button but alleviate my pain. I am still wondering why Kitware / the ParaView devs do not communicate the reasons better. I know users switching to VisIt only due to its reload button. Please update your statements on uservoice and the bug tracker. Otherwise people might think you don't listen.

Re: [Paraview] Status of reload button?
Christoph, The issues Alan pointed out are indeed some of the concerns. It's been that and priorities of the sources that fund ParaView development that we never got around to investigating this too deeply or coming up with an all encompassing solution. Maybe we start by picking a small set of readers to start adding this support to and that could be a good way to attack this. If we were to come with with such as readers list, what would those be?

Re: [Paraview] Status of reload button?
Hi Utkarsh, as you asked for my opinion: I use the file formats VTU, VTP, and PVD and would like to see a reload button them. As a first step a reload button should just reload the currently visible file. As a next step, I would love to see that for multiple files there number is updated, too. I would also consider the needs of large user groups like openFOAM users.
