Please STOP pre-setting values for the Set Column Value. This is a horrible ‘best practice’ - better to do nothing than to ‘guess’ what a developer is trying to do. (PS. I usually use workflows for actions to avoid what just happened)
USE CASE:
I was testing a hierarchical display technique which involved writing temp values to the USER table. I was using a collection in CARD layout when I decided to look at the layout in LIST view (you know where this is going). When I clicked on the entry I knew immediately what happened when the entire APP went ‘blank’…..Glide had over-written the USER entry with random data.
I checked the Set-Row-Value and the 3 columns I was updating was reset by GLIDE to re-write all BASIC columns with “random” screen values.
Maybe 5 years ago this was ‘OK’ but this default action should be stopped immediately.
