Is there a key combination to refresh what we see in the parallel passages (PP) tool?

For example, a project may be showing in the PP tool and in the course of working we may edit the text of one of those projects (in the main window). However, the PP tool does not reflect that change until we close and reopen it or until we click the “edit” button next to the affected project.

I see in the Help that F5 (a Windows standard) refreshes the Wordlist, but it does not appear to work in the PP tool.

To piggyback on what @Paulus+Kieviet said, I don’t think any Paratext windows will update with information from another window until that other window is saved. Some tools (like Biblical Terms) will save immediately after something is changed (like editing a rendering).

Saving the edited text (Ctrl+S) will refresh the text in the Parallel passages.

What does it mean when there is no Greek text in the parallel passages tool? The Hebrew shows up, but not the Greek. ... a source text tool, the Greek appears fine there as well.
