[Qgis-user] Default values in form

[Bernhard Ströbl]

Hi,

my expectation would be just the other way round: if I (globally) set 
"reuse last values" I would expect them to override any defaults.

So there would be an option in each field definition (a checkbox, next to the default value definition field) stating that the last non null inserted values do precede the default one.
