Posted on by 127

In "Custom form designer" i have a "Number input" field where i want to enter a variable in "Default value" field. I cant do this, PAD want only numeric values in this field.

I have the latest version installed. Is something in my part or is by design?

Any workaround to this?

    No workaround or variable can be used in the default value field, and the new version 2.46 also doesn't include this feature. You have to specify it manually.

    Hey @ViliBit 

     

    In "Custom Form Designer" You can't pass a Variable.

    You can follow an Alternate solution:

     

    You can set a default value to the number field and put a condition that checks if the value of this number field is equal to the default value. Then, you can use the "Set Variable" action to pass the variable.
