Hello,
Quick question...
I'd like to pre-fill my add/edit forms with default values. Is this functionality available/already done (can't find it in the docs), or should I attempt to add in another function for this purpose?

Thanks in advance for any replies!

I've been able to get defaults on add forms (surely you don't want them on edit forms?) with one helper function and a change to one line of GC code - details are at the end of this thread:
