Posted on by Community Power Pla...

In a Canvas App Form I have a number of fields. When a field is filled, I want another field to change its value to a 'default' value d

depending on what has been changed. How do I control the value of a field from another field's OnChange event?

set text in box 2 to something like

defaultVar

and onchange of textbox 1 to something liek

Set(defaultVar,"Here I am")

Once you type in box one, then click anywhere outside of it, box 2 will display the defaultVar.

@TheRobRush 's solution works perfectly, but personally I tend to only go via a variable if it's triggering multiple changes. If you are only using this one scenario, try this in the 'Text' property of the second box:
If( IsBlank(The first text box), Blank(), "The default text" )

Use the default selected items, or default selected property of the dropdown/combobox control.

have invisible of this page do an UpdateContext({defState:"Default Choice"}), then add another UpdateContext({defState:"New Choice"}) to the OnChange of your datepicker
