The add-in window won't pop-up as expected

Problem to Solve

I added one feature based on the great foundation of OneMore. It's function is very simple, that is to do incremental search for the pages or sections while typing into the text box.
The shortcut for this feature is F5 But the window won't behavior as expected. The 1st problem is that everytime when OneNote is reopened, the window can NOT pop-up when pressing F5 or click the menu item for the first time.
The 2nd problem is that sometimes when the window pop-ups, it get stuck. No content was loaded into the TreeView.
The 2nd problem can be reproduced when doing the debug with VS.
Could you help to review the code and point-out where needs to be revised? Thanks.

Environment (if applicable)

• OneNote Version: [e.g. Office 2019, O365, also 32bit or 64bit?]
• OneMore Version [e.g. 3.4 - from the About dialog or from the log file]

Additional Context

Add any other context about the problem here. Attach page XML file or the app log file as appropriate. You can find the log file here: %localappdata%\temp\OneMore.log

THE FINE PRINT This is a hobby project that I started for myself. I'm happy to take requests and will promise to consider each one carefully but offer no guarantees that I will ultimately agree to their usefulness or have time to implement any of them. If OneNote offers a "close enough" work-around then I will probably reject the request - you've been warned!

Do you have a github branch that I can look at? Otherwise, there's nothing here for me to reproduce or debug.

F5 is still bound to both your new command and AddFormulaCmd; unassign it from AddFormulaCmd. Also, you should not declare the one variable at the class-scope; instead, declare it inline with a using statement since it is disposable and should be short-lived.

But the main issue is that you're attempting to interact with the UI from the constructor which is prior to Application.Run within RunModeless so you don't yet have an applicable UI thread. Move that logic to an OnLoad handler. I've attached a zip of the NaviPages.cs file

Thank you very much for pointing-out the problem and showing the code on how to fix it. That's really helpful.
