Do you mean a) a redraw of the current content or b) some operation that causes us to query the data store (or file system)? </blockquote><div> By refresh, I mean to say that the data store is re-queried. More clearly, I changed the code (in src/jarabe/journal/listview) from :: ################################################################## def refresh(self): logging.debug('ListView.refresh query %r', self._query) self._stop_progress_bar() if self._model is not None: self._model.stop() self._dirty = False self._model = ListModel(self._query) self._model.connect('ready', self.__model_ready_cb) self._model.connect('progress', self.__model_progress_cb) self._model.setup() ################################################################## TO ################################################################## def refresh(self): if not self._inhibit_refresh: self.proceed_with_refresh() def proceed_with_refresh(self): logging.debug('ListView.refresh query %r', self._query) self._stop_progress_bar() if self._model is not None: self._model.stop() self._dirty = False self._model = ListModel(self._query) self._model.connect('ready', self.__model_ready_cb) self._model.connect('progress', self.__model_progress_cb) self._model.setup() ################################################################## where "self._inhibit_refresh = False", in multi-select mode.
