Hi there,
I have a similar issue that validation of fields are still active and triggered, even if the section where the elements are in is turned off by a visibility rule.
The visibility rule applies to a radio button, which switches two sections.
turn on section section1 if radio is 1
turn off section section1 if radio is 2
turn on section section2 if radio is 2
turn off section section2 if radio is 1
Both sections are turned off by default.
When I fill in the form validation works fine and when I choose radio value 1 section1 is shown, section2 stays hidden, and on submit the validation of section2 is not applied.
So far so good, but...
When I go back to the form with the parameter "Submission editable by user" enabled in the menu item, it shows that radio is set to value 1, but section1 is not visible and elements in section2 will fail validation when I press submit.
I will have to choose and click on the radio element again to let the visibility rules apply and the corresponding validation accordingly.
Despite the showing of the correct value of the radio button, the visibility rules have not been applied but the validation of the invisible elements will be triggered for both sections (which should not apply at all because both sections are turned off. So actually there are two functional errors at the same time).
I believe the cause of this has to be searched in the visibility rules more than in the validation, but who am I... A solution of any kind would be very much appreciated!
Thanks.
