What is your question?

I have a react JSON schema like this

{ "type": "object", "properties": { "platform": { "title": "", "$ref": "#/definitions/platform" } }, "definitions": { "username": { "type": "string", "title": "Enter Username" }, "url": { "type": "string", "title": "Enter url" }, "lineId": { "type": "string", "title": "Enter LineID" }, "platform": { "type": "object", "properties": { "platform": { "type": "string", "title": "Select Platform", "enum": [ "--select--", "Facebook", "Instagram", "Line" ], "default": "--select--" } }, "dependencies": { "action": { "oneOf": [ { "properties": { "action": { "const": "Follow" }, "username": { "$ref": "#/definitions/username" } } }, { "properties": { "action": { "const": "Share" }, "url": { "$ref": "#/definitions/url" } } }, { "properties": { "action": { "const": "Add" }, "lineId": { "$ref": "#/definitions/lineId" } } } ] }, "platform": { "oneOf": [ { "properties": { "platform": { "enum": [ "Facebook" ] }, "action": { "type": "string", "title": "Select Action", "enum": [ "Follow", "Share" ], "enumNames": [ "Follow", "Share" ] } } }, { "properties": { "platform": { "enum": [ "Instagram" ] }, "action": { "type": "string", "title": "Select Action", "enum": [ "Follow" ], "enumNames": [ "Follow" ] } } }, { "properties": { "platform": { "enum": [ "Line" ] }, "action": { "type": "string", "title": "Select Action", "enum": [ "Add" ], "enumNames": [ "Add" ] } } } ] } } } } }

on selecting platform an action field is rendered and based on the action field i am rendering different text fields. After Selecting a platform and action the third text field is displayed, However when i change the platform again the text field is still rendered on the screen .

Is it possible to hide the third field when i re select the platform ?

Research direction
The issue is that when selecting a new platform, the dependent fields (like username, url, lineId) are not being reset or hidden. Investigate the dependency handling in the core library, likely in the `@rjsf/core` package. Look for how dependencies are processed when the controlling field changes. Check the function that resolves dependencies and see if it clears dependent fields. A possible fix could be to reset the dependent fields when the dependency condition changes. It may be helpful to create a minimal reproduction and test the expected behavior.
