Hi everyone. I am new to Business Central and AL programming. I am now learning and following the learning path provided by Microsoft.
 
I have a Demo Page as follow:
 
 
And my DemoPageExt:
 
I want my second action to be placed after the first action so I use addafter(FirstAction). However, the second action is not showing on my Demo Page:
 
 
 
Application version: 24.4.22295.22393
Runtime: 13.1
 
What have I done wrong???  I have spend hours reading tutorials on actions and page extension and still wasn't able to solve the issues.
I am slowly losing my sanity. Please help, thank!!!!!!!

    If there is nothing running in the action, such as a trigger or a run object property, the action will not be displayed. add onaction trigger.

    The reason is simple. If there is nothing running in the action, such as a trigger or runobject property, the action will not be displayed.
    This is the behavior since NAV. You can add a message like the first action, and you can see it.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
