Help I'm stuck!  😞
 
Working on an application PDF form that i'm trying to make as quick and easy to complete by obtaining only the minimal required information needed from the end user.
 
Looking for help with the scripting for a radio button group, where a "Yes" response on the primary required radio button name "Group1" will then trigger a required follow up radio button group named "Subgroup1" in addition to a few required text field responses for some additional subquestions as a result of the Group1 radio set "Yes" response. Hope this all makes sense but added a screenshot below to hopefully provide further context/clarity for the purpose the scripting will fit.
 
Also would it be possible to also hide the subquestion (Subgroup1) radio button set and required text fields unless the primary question is answered "Yes"?
 
Appreciate any help from the Adobe community!  🙂

this.getField("Current Carrier").display = display.visible;
this.getField("Current Liability Limits").display = display.visible;

Just realized I attached the wrong screen shot of my current form and preliminary fields.
