1. I would like to select option 1 for my column auto display or selected.

For example :

Column A

Option 1

Option 2

 

I need my column auto display Option 1, if customer/user want to change it. It can be done however Column 1 should be selected or displayed Option 1 selected

2.

Another query - I need my another Column 4(multi selections dropdown) same options wants to be auto selected based on Column 2 

 

For example :

Column 2

A

B

C

D

 

Column 4

A

B

C

D

D1

 

If select all options in 

Column 2

A

B

C

 

Then Column 4 options should be also auto displayed or selected with same options.

    Hi @mtsts,

    1. I would like to select option 1 for my column auto display or selected.

    Could you please tell me that if you want your column display option1 whatever it is new form or eidt form?

    If you want the ComboBox display option1 in either new form or edit form, please set the DefaultSelectedItems property as:

    {Value:"Option 1"}

    If you want the ComboBox display option1 in new form, please set the DefaultSelectedItems property as:

    If(FormName.Mode=FormMode.New,
    {Value:"Option 1"},
    Parent.Default
    )
    

     

    2. Another query - I need my another Column 4(multi selections dropdown) same options wants to be auto selected based on Column 2

    Set the DefaultSelectedItems property as:

    Column2_DataCardValue.SelectedItems
