change button text on roSpringBoardScreen

Is it possible to change the text on a button on roSpringboardScreen without clearing and re-adding the buttons? I haven't found anything that suggests it is possible, but it sure would be nice. I'm wanting to make my pause button text include the time the audio playback is currently at.

Not possible. You have to clear and re-add all your buttons. You can use AllowUpdates() to keep things from flickering each time you update the buttons.

You'll also want to set UseStableFocus(), otherwise the selected button will reset to the first one every time you update.
