Re: How to fill in a default value in a form with intake ?
Xavier
I'm not sure about this but...I think your problem is two-fold here:
1) Your mapToObject statement is going to place the value it gets from
the object which apparently at this point is blank.
2) The defaultValue attribute is the value it will place in the field
if the form is empty. However, your form is not empty because you
mapped it, hence the default will never be placed there.
To test this, try not mapping the form and see if the page renders with
the appropriate default value. If it does display I would change my
code in the template, screen, and action classes to pass form data
through intake using the default key if an object does not yet exist,
and to use mapping when it does.

OK, now it is clearer.
Thanks you, Bill and Quinton.
