Hi, I am about to file a ticket for this. Another thought in this context: When defining "default values" it would be splendid if one could use variables (e.g. %USER% or expressions like in the field calculator or Relation Reference widget). What do you think? The latter could probably go into a new widget type "Calculated"?
Another thing in this context could be adding the possibility do define "Mouse-over effects" in order to help understanding attribute content better (e.g. Units, backgrounds, how to measure in the field...)?! Lables are not allways sufficient, but maybe the GUI gets too fidgety? Should a request for this go into separate tickets?

Additionally, this makes me think of another possible enhancement: when displaying a picture in a form tab, it could be nice to hide the label and path/url to the file, which is most of the time useless. Do I need to do anything more to make these suggestions ?

Any feedback on it is welcome. Matthias On 06/26/2015 11:35 AM, Paolo Cavallini wrote: Agreed, an important improvement. Please open a ticket if not already there. All the best.

However, sounds like a useful enhancement of the Custom form functionality (at least I would be interested too)...

I have Postgis layers in QGis in which I'm inserting or updating data, and I would like that some fields would be filled automatically unless I fill them myself. Well that's the definition of a default value, and I don't think that using layers stored in Postgis would make any difference.
