So I have created a search box and button using a field editor with a UI Only Field and a Page Title where the button is triggered when you hit Return by setting return as a hotkey for the button.


(You might ask why I didn’t just use a normal table filter. It’s complicated. There are reasons. I can provide details if needed.)


It works pretty well if you type some text and then click the button. It also works well if you type some text and then wait half a second and hit return.


But if you type some text and quickly hit return, the button is activated but the Actions for the button seem to be run before the text in the field is actually sent to it’s model or more importantly to the condition for my SearchResults model.


Is there some way to delay the button’s action until the value of the UI Only SearchString Field has been fully “set”?


Below is the XML for a test page. It searches Contacts based on their name.


To reproduce the issue: Try typing a name and clicking the search button. Then close the popup and type a new name and quickly hit return. The popup will show you that the SearchString and the SOQL are not the same because the condition is not getting the value from the SearchString in time.


Any help is appreciated.
