Non-Post Action Script changes Assignee value but UI does not reflect change until submission.

Sorry for this text being at the end but the Answers UI is not letting me put the code after my text if I use the Code macro.

I have code to handle setting the assignee to a particular value for certain Non-Fixed Resolutions and then making the assignee field Read Only.Using debug print outs I can see that the value does indeed get changed and if I Resolve the issue it gets set correctly.

However, the UI doesn't show the change until after submission and the field doesn't get set to Read Only.I'm using the Behaviors Plugin and it is attached to the Resolution field and as I said the code is working as far as setting the values. How do I get the UI to update? I've used other scripts to change things on the screen based on other fields and they work fine but this one is setting the Assignee.

Thanks,
Jon

Anyone have any clues on this one? Just need to get the UI to reflect the update to the Assignee field correctly.

Thanks,
Jon

Just FYI, I went ahead and upgraded us to 5.2.11 with Behaviors 0.5.3. Still same issue.

Sorry I should have included that, always forget. It's Jira 5.2.9 with Behaviors 0.5.3.

What version of jira? It's possible that it's not working in the most recent. It's very hard to keep track of the UI changes... there is no concept of a public API for the DOM.
