[Bug]: Preview PDF not updated #1686
Description
Current Behavior
The changed PDF in Files Preview blocks (or via wsh view <pdf>) is not updated, showing the old contents.
The preview seems to cache the old one. Even when I deleted the pdf and re-built a new one, the old one is displayed.
Only when I quit the Wave and re-launch it, the PDF preview is updated.
Expected Behavior
The preview show the latest file content.
Steps To Reproduce
A quick way to reproduce:
- compile a tex file to a pdf.
- make text changes and recompile
- check the PDF preview

we don't currently have file watchers implemented for the preview widget so changes you make in an app outside of Wave will not be reflected until you open the preview again. We're looking to address this soon
