Please always use pastebin.com or paste.kde.org to show your codes instead

to do this on the commandline is that if it fails at 25, it doesn&#39;t crash the \
whole program.  It just moves on to 50.  So I can end up in the end where when I \
click on 25 it tells me that there&#39;s nothing in the source and then I click on 50 \
and I can use the data from that source.  So, right now if I want the data from 25, \
the only way I know how to do that is by re-running the program and hoping the API \
doesn&#39;t fail that time around.  Is there a way for me to tell the data engine to \
update group 25 again from within the QML gui?<br>
