Returning to a generation view now shows the current state

Photo shoots, packshots, models, sceneries and videos refresh when you come back to the tab or reopen the view, so finished work no longer waits behind an out-of-date list.

Generation views update live while you work: as soon as a job finishes, the tile fills in on its own. When that live connection is interrupted — a dropped network, a laptop waking from sleep, a tab left in the background — the view was supposed to fall back to refreshing whenever you returned to it. That fallback did not work.

The result was that a view could keep showing an out-of-date list for up to half an hour, and in the video picker for up to two hours. Leaving the page and coming back did not help, because the list was served from what had already been loaded. The only way to see finished work was the refresh button.

Returning to a generation view now always fetches the current state. Switching back to the tab, or navigating away and reopening the view, brings the list up to date regardless of how recently it was loaded. This applies to photo shoots, packshots, generated models and sceneries, videos, and the same lists shown on a product's detail page.

The live updates and the refresh button are unchanged — this restores the layer in between, so an interrupted connection no longer leaves you waiting on a list that has stopped moving.
