Business Central Web Client: Page Action Visibility

In year 2017 I blogged about switching of controls based on visibility property and during those days we have to press ‘F5’ to refresh the web client. You can visit the blog here https://navseenbyamol.tech.blog/2017/01/20/nav-client-development/

Now today when I am checking in Business client this problem has been solved and now we no need to press F5 to refresh the page and it automatically switch the controls based on conditions or visibility property set. This changes will surely help me in app development which I am working on.

Nice improvement in web client
