• Three tabs within a section in a form.
• Three rules to show/hide the tabs based on a selection in "type of request".
• 

• First two tabs show/hide tabs (and the fields in the tab) correctly with no issues.
• 
• 
• Third tab shows the tab, but doesn't show the fields within the tab until I click on the tab.
• 
• 

• If I swap the third tab/fields in the form element order, it will display correctly. I re-arranged the form elements and it is always the third tab/rule that has the issue. 
• I tried adding the fields into the rule, so show tab, show field, show field, show field..., but that didn't change anything.

I didn't seem to find the "Fix" to this in the posts I looked at so I thought I'd provide some Intell/Obervations/My fix here.

My Use Case:

Section 1
Element1, Element2
Section 2
Lots of Elements
Section 3
5 Checkboxes
5 Tabs
Varying # of elements per [Tab]
_______________________

Problem Was:
In "Add" mode, & edit if I specific conditions occurred, the following occurred.

Tab1 elements were always visible, even though form rule1 was:
When chkbox1 = checked Show [Tab1] - In "Add" all fields are blank (Unchecked).  In theory, that rule should supersede the [Tab1] "clicked open" default behavior mentioned by Mark Shnier.  That default behavior is clearly not limited to [Tab1] as posted by Sherry Blackburn.  I can confirm the 1st 2 [Tabs] exhibit this behavior (Glitch1)

The ONLY fix to having all elements for Tabs exceeding 2 is to write rules that Show every element in the [Tab].  

In my case, and perhaps for others, I don't want [Tab1] to be shown by default when the form was opened in "Add", or edit if the project [Form] was not truly going to be started (i.e. Only a proof of concept project).

In order for no [Tabs] to be shown by default, I created a new [Tab1] that has no Label and created a rule that would never evaluate as True.  Referencing the top of this post that looks like this:
In Section1
When
  multiple conditions are true
   All
    Element1  is equal to blank
    Element1  is not equal to blank
   Show [Tab] (This is now Tab1.

My guess is the function that controls the creation/displaying/setting focus to [Tabs] has code that limits those behaviors.

Hope this helps someone and provides some intell on what's goiung on with Tabs.

If you only have one tab and try to hide it then the name of the tab will be hidden but the underlying elements will appear. I'd recommend creating another tab, and then I think you can hide both.
