bug confirmed on

PHP Version 7.2.23

Apache 2.0 Handler
Linux amd64 / Debian 4.9.168
Version 3.19.3+191023

it may cause a real problem for users when filling a survey, especially if the survey begins with a long radio or select box; see demo pics and lss example

the user submit without filling 1st mandatory field; then, the focus is on... the second question!

bug confirmed in Version 3.17.5+190604 and already present in Version 3.7.1+180424

Debian 4.9.168-1+deb9u3~deb8u1 (2019-06-17) x86_64
mysqlnd 5.0.12-dev - 20150407
PHP Version 7.3.10
Apache 2.0 Handler

Focus on mandatory (dropdown/radio-button) question doesn't work.
It's confusing if order of questions matters and participants are leaded to non-answered questions at the bottom of a group question or if there is no focus because remaining non-answered but mandatory questions are all dropdowns (idem fradeff above).

!!! If you use Question validation Tip conditioned by answers to previous questions, focusing (after submit) and instant shadowing works fine.
See example below, choosing master as education level causes year of completion to become mandatory ... . Perhaps this difference to non-focusing global mandatory questions (dropdown) will help to correct the bug.
In my opinion and in term of user experience this isn't a minor bug.

I will financially contribute to its correction because my client complained getting lost during answering.
Thanks
