Robert,
Once a file is loaded and being edited in DbVisualizer there is no automatic notification whenever the file is externally modified.
Any external changes in a file is recognized by DbVisualizer at save. You will then be prompted with various options how to proceed.

Re: How to reload a file?
Can this be changed? It is terribly unfriendly - if I modify the file in some other application, DbVisualizer doesn't pick it up unless make a change in the file and attempt to save.. or close and re-open the file.

Robert,
There is also the option to revert to saved in File->Revert to Saved.

Re: How to reload a file?
But File > Revert to Saved also doesn't become selectable until you make a change to the file within DbVisualizer.. this is still really unfriendly. DbVisualizer really should be able to pick a file change without a user action - or at least make such an option user configurable.

Robert,
Revert to Saved and Compared with Saved are now always enabled if a file is loaded in the just released 9.1.8 version.

Re: How to reload a file?
Good stuff!
I also tend to make changes to my scripts using an external editor and always found it a little annoying that I had to make a change to the script in DbVisualizer in order to enable the Revert feature.
Thanks.
