Issue
- When adding a field or multiple fields when using Liferay forms, the web page reverts to the top of the form instead of remaining on the newly added fields. In the image below, after selecting the "Duplicate" button, the expected behavior is that the view would remain on the next entry below "Repeatable Field"; the page will instead revert to the top of the "Repeatable Test Page".

Resolution
- This is a known behavior due to the wrong call of autofocus. A fix can be requested that includes LPS-177877.
