refreshing OverhangSlice

Can you refresh the entire overhang slice once it has been shown? Screen.Show() doesn't seem to do it. However, .SetBreadcrumbText() + .Show() will refresh the piece of the slice underneath the breadcrumb text, so the new slice setting does "take".

FYI, I am using .SetBreadcrumbText("text", "") if that makes a difference.

Re: refreshing OverhangSlice

The theme attributes are not applied on a show(). They are applied when new screens are created....

So, if you change the overhead and then create a new screen, it should use the new overhang images.

Re: refreshing OverhangSlice

Thanks. I reworked my screen loop so that it would recreate the screen after an update. I also created an extra initial screen to cover for the time between the old screen closing and the new screen showing.
