Hi,

yes by default all data is saved even controls are hidden. 

I saw that it was possible to delete irrelevant fields during submission but I found that you can specify that when you write in a pure forms or you add attribute in the source code. https://doc.orbeon.com/xforms/submission/submission-extensions#element-relevance-information

No idea if it is supported in Form builder or in process definitions. 

Do you need to clean the data or to delete nodes at all?

I need clean data when I save form. I mean, in my form, I have the situation that the visibility of one section (let's call it section B) depends on the value of the checkbox in another section (let's call it section A). And we can imagine such a situation that the user completing the form will fill something in section B, maybe by mistake (and this will be data that does not have to go to the database), then return to section A and set the checkbox to false, so the section B will not be visible

Hi Władysław,

I think that what you're looking for is covered by the request for
enhancement #3152. I've added a +1 from you, and you'll let me know if I'm
missing anything.

‑Alex

You can use this above to erase data that is not visible

[Seth Parkhurst]

if visibility is "

$control1= '1' and $control2 != '3'
"

then calculated value is "

if($control1= '1' and $control2!= '3') then . else ''

"

and 

read only is "

false
