feature request: manual reload

Open Hades32 opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

At the moment the only way to reload a file seems to be to re-open it again.

I'm working in WSL2 and editing my files there with VS code, but CQ-editor runs in Windows. Therefore the automatic change detection doesn't work.

As I guess the above is hard to fix, I'd wish for a simple reload command (e.g. triggered by CTRL-R) that just reloads the current file.

PS: Thank you for this great tool!

@Hades32 There is an Autoreload option in Preferences that will cause CQ-editor to re-render the model when you save the file in an external editor.

Thanks @jmwright , but as I tried to express above, the automatic reloading doesn't work. I think the reason is that WSL is shown as a network drive which doesn't have change events for files

I have the same issue. (Scripts are on WSL2's ext4 filesystem, and CQ-Editor runs in Windows.) I also want a manual reload command. At the moment, I have to re-open the same file via file open dialog.
