Synopsis

refresh [-currentView] [-force]

refresh is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT editable.

This command is used to force a redraw during script execution. Normally, redraw is suspended while scripts are executing but sometimes it is useful to show intermediate results for purposes such as capturing images from the screen.

If the -cv flag is specified, then only the current active view is redrawn.
