Resetting of field in Confiform of type WS Multi-Select

[Stuart Wosika]

Hi guys,

when I use the IFTTT rule for field definition to reset my fields in a form, it works for everything except WS Multi-Select. There seems to be a slight issue.

When I reset, it does remove the entries previously chosen but on the form leaves a X entry on the screen in the form field.  Now I have tested and the form does believe that the field is empty but it is an annoying and could confuse users.

Is this a BUG?  Can I use the rule "Set Value" instead to reset the field?

Thanks for your assistance in advance.

BR.

Stuart.

Hi

Could you please explain how do you use the IFTTT rule to reset a value in the field? Are you updating the field back on form submit setting the field value to be empty?

OK, I think I understand what do you mean. We will look into addressing that little UI glitch
