Refresh Widget action does not properly update Entity Buttons widget

I was working on the combining tables project and notice that Entity Buttons widgets are not being updated properly when using Refresh Widget. I’m using entity state to display information.

Refreshing the screen does update the Entity Button widget. (I do have a name defined for the widget).

Here is the (bare bones) database backup of the issue:

I don’t think refresh widget would work there. The screen needs refreshed to capture state changes. I could be wrong.

Instead of using widget refresh, try displaying the screen again

I didn’t notice until I was making the video, but the table name does disappear from the entity button, but not the color/text

Great idea! I’ll give it a try and report back.

Yup, that did the trick! I had to disable a screen change rule that would automatically turn off combine table mode. but that’s not a big deal.

Thanx!
