Achim,

Thanks, this did the trick. A bit annoyed at this workaround, but I'm still getting used to working w/ QC (so... many... weird.. workarounds). Eventually you must get to a Zen state about it all. :)

Hi Leonard,

I don't know why the update signal shouldn't work. In older days I was
changing the URL of the image whenever I wanted to force a reload by the
Image Importer Patch. I simply added a "?time=XXX" to the URL where
"XXX" has to change every time the patch should reload the image. The
URL changes so the patch thinks it is a different image and starts
downloading it, again. The web server where the image is loaded from
usually ignores the "?time=..." parameter.

Does this work for you, too?

I've been building a little QC4 Patch that is basically doing a
screensaver-style visualization pulling from an URL w/ the Image
Importer. I'm using a "Pulse" to trigger the Update Signal, however
that doesn't seem to trigger a reload unless I put it in Synchronous
Mode. This of course, causes stuttering that I'd rather not have. Is
this a bug or is there something I'm missing about making sure Update
Signal works w/ non-synchronous loading?

Are there other options available for me?
