# tui/theme-reload
Rescan the theme directories (project overrides, prelude `:themes :dir`, user home, stdext defaults, legacy `./themes/`) and rebuild the loaded theme set, re-applying the currently active theme by name. The reload is deferred to the host main loop.
## Syntax
[tui/theme-reload]
## Examples
[theme/save [theme/current]] # edit + save the active theme file [tui/theme-reload] # rescan and re-apply — panels repaint
## Returns
bool — true when the reload was queued; false when no workspace is attached. The reload bumps a per-app theme revision so panels repaint even when the active theme name is unchanged (same name, edited colors).
