when saved control jumps to jsx file and the function is below

and that prepares an object and the file name is used to link the image in image source. that looks like this.

Try replacing:

exportArtboard.fileName= unescape(base_filename.replace('/c/','/'));

With:

exportArtboard.fileName= unescape(base_filename.replace('/c/','/')) + "?stamp=" + Date.now();

When you say "when i edit an image in illustrator", are you talking about linked/embedded images or any art object?

How does your plugin load the illustrator files? What happens if the user closes and then reopens the file in Illustrator after modifying it, do you get the modified version then?
