Dynamic Section Refresh After User Actions (File Uploads, Field Edits, Form Updates)

Currently, certain UI elements - such as custom action buttons - do not appear or update until the user manually refreshes the page after performing an action (e.g. uploading a file). While the existing behavior is intentional to avoid disrupting multi-tasking workflows and prevent loss of unsaved data, it can create confusion for users who expect the interface to reflect changes immediately.

Use Case:
A user uploads a file on a project page and then navigates to the Actions menu expecting to see the 'UAT Plan - Send for Approval' button. The button does not appear until the page is manually refreshed, which feels unintuitive.

Proposed Enhancement:
Introduce selective/partial page refresh functionality, where only the relevant section of the page (e.g. the Actions menu) updates dynamically in response to a user action, without triggering a full page reload. This would preserve the user's current workflow and unsaved data while ensuring the UI stays in sync.
