How to live render only a section of the console with Python Rich package

[Yogesh7920]

In the official example provided in layout.py, the entire layout is being rendered four times every second, but it's only the header that is changing, thus I want to have Live only for the header section, how can I do that.

I tried the following

layout["header"].update(Clock())

with Live(layout["header"], redirect_stderr=False, auto_refresh=False, console=console) as live:
    console.print(layout["main"])
    try:
        while True:
            live.refresh()
            sleep(1)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pass

But even in this case, the main is getting printed before the header itself.

That is correct. That is how Live works. If you want something more dynamic, consider Textual.
