This is a Finder thing rather than a Rev thing, I think as I have encountered it in other situations where (e.g.) something gets put on the Desktop behind the active window of another app. Finder only seems to refresh (and sometimes not very quickly - i.e. more than a second) when it is brought to the front, either by clicking on the desktop, a Finder window, or the Finder icon in the Dock.


I guess if something is changed other than via Finder, then Finder doesn't know to update it until you actually go looking for that thing, or tell it to update.

Sorry if I'm way off on this but, I just jumped in here.
1.  If you just want to update a Finder window, you can do that with
the Applescript "update folder pathToFolder".  I've had to use this to
refresh the contents of open Finder windows.  I don't do that any more
though.
