Correct way to reload View?

[Tuoman]

I need to reload view completely after major external changes. I don't want to reset each state manually.

What is the correct way to do this? Is this the only way?

void MyView::reloadView()
{
 application().gotoMyScreenNoTransition();
}

This works fine, but requires custom handles for each view.

Hi,

​

I would do it the same way as well but there might be a better way :grinning_face_with_sweat:. What kind of "major external changes" are you doing ? It seems interesting.

Ok. This works, unless ST wants to add "reload" function to TouchGFX views.

This device loads&displays data from external devices. When these devices are plugged in/out, I want to reset the view and all its contents&states, instead of manually resetting everything.

Hello Tuoman,

As Romain said, transitioning to the same screen is a good and easy way to reset the states of a screen. Right now, we don't have other specific way to perform this.
