Dropdown: Values to be cheked (selected values) after reload

I have a dropdown2 in my form that is filled with the data obtained from a database with a read_data after a reload action activated by another dropdown1.This action is done correctly but I want the default value shown in the dropdown2 after the reload action to be a certain value.

​

I enter this value in the "selected values" field of dropdown2 but it is ignored after the reload action.

​

For example:

Dropdown values obtained from the database:

1 = Test 1

2 = Test 2

3 = Test 3

.....

​

Selected values:

2

​

Result:

Test 1

​

You always get the first value "Test 1" even if we try to change selected values by 1, 2, 3, ....

​

This behavior only occurs after a reload action.

​

Please, How can I indicate to the dropdown the value I want to show after the reload action?

I think the selected values only works on page load.

This is actually incorrect, @healyhatman. It is possible to reload the selected values on field reload. You just need to set the value as a variable in the reload event, and then in the Selected Values box on the field, use {var:your_var_name} to get the selected value.

At the time, 12 months ago, it was correct. Has been fixed since.
