[Feature request] Keep refreshing image when not moving cursor

[KaKi87]

Thanks

You can run magnus from the command line (or a shortcut) with the --force-refresh parameter which will ensure that the image is refreshed even if the cursor doesn't move, which should solve this!

Hello,

I just tried magnus --force-refresh from a terminal but it doesn't change anything.

Thanks

Oh. Um... it ought to! Can you say what you're running Magnus on? OS details and so on? It should work...

Distro : Ubuntu 23.04
Desktop environment : Unity
App version : 1.0.3

OK, so, just to confirm, this is the experience I get: if I run as magnus, there's no automatic updates, and if I run as magnus --force-refresh, updates do happen, like this:

magnus-refresh.mp4

Yes, this is what I hoped to experience, but I'm not experiencing it.

[stuartlangridge]

OK; I wanted to confirm that we were talking about the same thing. I'm afraid I do not know what might be causing that. I'll leave this issue open and update it if I can work something out. Apologies for this; it's supposed to work.

Hello, I have encountered the same issue, using the same runtime environment and magnus version. Adding --force-refresh had no effect. Has there been any progress on a fix?
