[Qgis-user] Default values in form

[didier peeters]

Hello Mathias,

this would be great ! 
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 ?

Didier
