Reveal.js: Question: Updating background attributes dynamically

[hitchcott]

I love reveal, but I'm having a bit of an issue with dynamically updating/replacing background images and colours on slides.

I have tried changing the data-background-image attribute on my section and calling Reveal.initialize(), but to no avail -- the background remains the same colour as when I did the first init. I event went so far as to remove the .backgrounds div to hope to force a re-rendering, but it was re-populated with the old values when i reinitialized.

Seems like the only way I've found that works is refreshing the whole page.

Could someone point me to a method of updating background attributes for slides dynamically, without refreshing the page?

Thanks!

Calling Reveal.sync() will recreate the backgrounds based on the current attributes in the DOM.
