Sats4eva Lost but trying Posts: 44 Reg: Jan 01, 2012 Toronto, ON 440	confirm \| cancel 01/24/12 08:18 PM (14 years ago) The Refresh button Ok so i have a few questions on the refresh button on the top left. Is it true: 1) If i remove the refresh button any updates that I do will also be removed? Here is my scenario. I used a text file to query location settings. If i add or remove entries to my text file, will they still update if the refresh button is removed? does it matter? Thanks Title Comments Ok so i have a few questions on the refresh button on the top left. Is it true: 1) If i remove the refresh button any updates that I do will also be removed?

If you have a screen that makes calls to the text file via a URL, you can remove the refresh button, but the app will still retrieve the text file when that particular screen is invoked and the URL is called. Does that make sense?
