Description
PTXprint 2.1.13 in Wasta 20.04, PT-Linux 9.0. If I edit the Scripture text referenced in a Module, PTXprint does not update the text until I change the Module view to Output view (Standard or Preview). Nothing else triggers it: regenerate the SFM, print 2x, close PTXprint/reopen, move away from View+Edit and back to it.
If this is an unavoidable step to take (viewing Output in PT after editing the text), it would be helpful to have a note on the View+Edit page somewhere--I guess the logical place might be added to the popup on the Generate button?
I don't think an archive will help this time, but let me know if you want it.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in PTXprint by editing Scripture text referenced by a Module while using View+Edit, then compare the displayed text before and after switching to Output view. Trace the refresh behavior from that interaction; done means the included or referenced text updates without requiring an Output-view change, or the required step is documented on the View+Edit page.
