how to refresh an image when the file is modified?

[Frédéric Boone]

Hi all,

I'd like to be able to refresh an image by reading again the file it comes from.
I tried
imp.updateAndRepaintWindow();

and several others but that doesn't work.

Any idea welcome.

Try

   IJ.run("Revert")

which is equivalent to running the File>Revert command.

Thanks,

I tried but unfortunately it does'nt refresh the image from the file
(it is till the original image).

The only way I found is to close the window and open a new one from
the same file, but that's not really what I want (the new window is
not at the same position etc...).
