Lately I'm noticing various objects disappearing from time to time. I run a Restore From Backup to get them back. Perhaps a Refresh method can be offered.

I never noticed that Shortcut. Yes, that refreshes it. But is there a way to do this without adding another Shortcut to my screen?

yeah you could assign it to a gesture or something but i think the best way to do it would be by script menu because its quick to access and doesn't clutter the desktop. To do this open the script editor (in the app drawer) paste the line below ⇣

LL.runAction(28);

slide out the drawer from the left side of the scriot editor screen give the script a name like reload/restart or something just to make it easy to identify later on then tick the box that says lightning menu. Go back to your homescreen long press desktop/scripts/reload (or whatever you called it)

No problem. I simply added a Shortcut to my main screen to do this. It's fine.
