It was me.

The app opens a bunch of stacks including the one I was working on. The 
test target isn't activated unless the stack that will be compiled is 
focused. It was sitting there in full view but I hadn't clicked on it to 
bring it to the front.


I feel both relieved and stupid.

My phone was uncabled overnight, I left LC running with all the various 
windows and scripts open. Just cabled the phone up again. Terminal sees 
it immediately without any interaction. LC doesn't. I issued the command 
you suggested (twice,) nothing happened.


Now I have to close 8 script windows, half a dozen stacks, quit LC, and 
then re-open and set up everything again. This is not only annoying, 
it's tripling the amount of time it takes to debug.

J,

The devices refresh automatically on both my Win 10(Android) and OS X
10.12.6 Xcode 9.2 (iOS and Android). I'm using 8.1.9 GM. I tested by
plugging devices in/out/in. 

You could try this in the message box for Android. It's untested. (found it
by scratching in the IDE).

Subject: Forcing a device update

Is there a way to force the IDE to look for attached mobile devices without
restarting LiveCode?

Typically I have half a dozen scripts open and I'm doing multiple test
builds to a cabled phone. I edit some scripts and during that time the phone
goes into low-power mode (not asleep or locked.) When I tap it to show the
launcher again, LC has lost the device and I have to restart LC to make it
scan again.

I can use Terminal to rescan if necessary, but even after it sees the phone,
LC still doesn't.

I need a message box command to make LC "see" the device again. 
Restarting loses all my open script windows and I have to relaunch the stack
and set everything up again.
