Relevant fields in nested repeats not refreshing after change

[KMo]

I have a fairly complicated data collection form. The first page of the survey contains set-up information, such as plot name and protocol. Depending on the protocol selected, a different fields will appear within nested repeats (called up by the Relevant column). The problem arises when someone initially selects the wrong protocol, then navigates back to the first page and corrects it, but the fields corresponding to the new protocol do not appear. It seems that the Relevant column doesn't update?

This issue has been spotty and I wonder if it is only a problem if some nested repeat data is already collected-- I have not tried to replicate this but see it on the back end when the correct protocol is selected and relevant fields are not displayed. 

Has anyone else encountered this?

If you mean all repeats update at once then no.  You would have to scroll through each repeat for it to fire again.  Know limitation.

One workaround is to put the relevant on the repeat itself (I think that works) or a group.  But be careful it can wipe a lot of data like that.
