Go To Field and visible=false

I have a field (a) that's displayed sometimes. The previous field (b) has a 'go to field' of field (a). Field (a) has a 'go to field' of field (c). This is fine when field (a) is displayed (so the cursor moves to (a) then (b) then (c) and then back to (a)). However, if field (b) is set to visible=false, the cursor doesn't move from (a) to (c) as it should - instead it gets moved to the invisible field (b).

Should the behavior not be that if a 'go to' field is set to visible=false, the cursor should automatically go to the value of the visible=false field, thus effectively skipping the invisible=false field?

Hi Andrew,

This is by design but I believe there is an existing feature request to review how this behaves. Currently, there may be a way to accomplish this via conditional logic. Could you use the same condition/logic that decides visibility of field (b), to also control setting focus to field (c)?
