Auto refresh
« on: January 19, 2015, 09:10:33 AM »
Running PM 5.0 build 16231 under Windows 8.1:

I have one contact sheet open, which displays the contents of a folder into which new files are being written continuously (from Lightroom export.)

While I look at the contact sheet in PM, its contents do not update until and unless I hit the / button. However, if I switch windows (ALT-tab) from PM to another app, then switch back to PM, the contents of the contact sheet have been updated.

So, it appears an auto-refresh of the contact sheet happens every time I switch back into PM.

Is there any way to have PM auto-refresh a contact sheet while I'm working in PM? This would be a time-saver, vs. having to hit the  / button every time I want an update.

No, there is no 'auto-refresh' of contact sheets.

Kirk,

Thanks ... perhaps this could be logged as a feature request?
