Setting Field Value as Default in a Repeater

JohnMcConalogue — Fri, 23 Feb 2018 12:07:04 GMT

I have a drop-down list with 3 values and I want to set one value to be default, I can do this but it seems no to work when the field is within a Repeater.

How can I do this within a Repeater?

Thanks.

Hi John,

I'm able to set a default value for a select_one within repeat section successfully. Can you provide the example that does not work?

Here is example that doesn't work.

The highlighted line is the field I am trying to set the default to "Low".

This field has an appearance of "minimal".

begin repeat	equip_assess	Equipment Assessment
select_one equipment	park_equip	<b>Equipment</b>
select_one pass_fail	pass_fail	Pass/Fail
select_multiple criteria	area_public	Fail Criteria
text	failure_reason	Reason for Failure
select_one risk	riskassessment	Risk
end repeat

Thanks.

Hi John,

Again, I am able to get this to work. See the attached sample. One thing to note is that he default must be the 'name' value of the choice, not the label.
