Hi @arunpatidar ,

 Default value is getting reflected but i want to see one field items as default on configuring the dialog and so i can add multiple items by clicking on the 'Add' option.

 

Thanks.


Hi,

This can be achieved by adding a default node structure in component's cq:template node.

Hi @keerthi97 

Adding the property "value" to your dialogue input fields would be your solution. 
Take a look at the example below:

 

 

<navigationLinks
   jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
   sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield"
   fieldLabel="Navigation Links">
   <field
      jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
      sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/container"
      name="./navLinks">
      <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
         <fieldset
            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
            jcr:title="Link"
            sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/fieldset">
            <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
               <linkLabel
                  jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
                  fieldLabel="Link Label"
                  name="./linkLabel"
                  value="@@@@@@@INiTIAL VALUE GOES HERE@@@@@@@@"/>
            </items>
         </fieldset>
      </items>
   </field>
</navigationLinks>

    @keerthi97  the example snippet shared by @kautuk_sahni should work, by default you would see it as shown in screenshot 1 and you need to click Add button to see default value(as you can see in Screenshot 2) and save the dialog at least once so that the default data will also get stored.

     

    Screenshot 1: 

    Screenshot 2: 

    Hope this helps.
