Refreshing theme-app-extension block when selecting product variant

Refreshing theme-app-extension block when selecting product variant

Hi,

I am developing a theme-app-extension block for the Product page. One of the values displayed in the block is specific to the current product variant. Right now it seems the block is not refreshing when the user choose between different variants. Is there a way to force re-render the block when changing to a different product variant? Anyway suggestions/hint will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

David

I did something similar by detecting the change in the URL and pulling the variant ID from the `variant` query string in the URL and re-rendering. This works on many themes but not all. 

 

If anyone has any other ideas I would be happy to hear as well.
