Hi, I want to have my choice button exclude “-” option. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/c/bc6e95dc25de4c11878f7080777eb8e763ebc05a.png) This “-” is included as a default setting. The source of these choice options does not have “-”. Why is this included and how can I exclude this? ---

Have you tried making the option a ‘required’ field rather than ‘optional’? Optional is the default setting so you get the “-“ ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/2/c/2c5f03fafad472caf7795f556cb15699c6c83712.jpeg) ---
