Auto Refresh?

Is there a way to have an app automatically attempt to refresh the content within the app upon startup? For example, we are working on one for an organization that would like to post event updates in a tab so that people could check on it so if we pointed a page to a URL and the URL page was updated, could we have the app automatically update that content when it opens as long as it has an internet connection?

Yes, you can do this on a screen-by-screen basis. Go to your screen in the Control Panel...choose Show/Hide Advanced Properties. Go to Document Behavior, and find the Force Refresh option. Choosing 'Yes, Force refresh' will cause the screen to refresh each time you load it. Mark
