We have several forms that are set to be accessible during certain times of the year. To avoid having too manually adjust show/hide fields or disable the form, I use field rules to display Custom HTML messages or show the fields that are available to complete based on specific triggers in the form and/or the current date. We also use this setup to prevent users from completing an external form more than once.
In testing, I noticed that the messages and fields that are set to show based on field rules, show immediately when the form starts to load for less than a second, then the field rules take effect to keep them hidden until something on the form triggers them to show. I tested this in the classic designer and the rules take effect immediately which is what I would expect. Is this an issue with Modern designer?
I built a very basic test with one field rule and no look up rules to make sure nothing was interfering with the rules, and I got the same result.
