Summary When adding a field while working inside a specific Tab → Section, the new field sometimes appears in a different tab/section. This breaks flow and forces users to hunt it down and move it. Proposed Solution Default the new field’s destination to the active Tab → Section. Show a small “Add to: [Tab] › [Section]” control with a dropdown to change the destination if needed. After creation, auto-scroll/flash to the new field for confirmation. Why it helps Matches user expectations (“add here means add here”) Reduces confusion and needless drag-and-drop Speeds up tab/section build-out Edge cases If no section is active, fall back to the last used section in the active tab (or the first section). If permissions prevent placement, default to the nearest allowed section and inform the user. Success indicators Less time spent finding new fields Fewer post-creation moves Higher satisfaction when building tabbed layouts
