Can't change a value through PHP

Set a default value in a ChronoForms textarea using PHP.

Overview

The issue occurs when PHP code blocks in CF include opening and closing tags, which prevents the code from executing correctly.
Remove the PHP tags from the code block in the form setup, entering only the pure PHP assignment statement.

Hi. I've read some post on this site about replacing value in form. But using php, I can not do it.

I've made teaxtarea with id dopinfo and with the same name. In the setup tab I've added the php block with code:

<?php
$this->data['dopinfo'] = "dfhfbcvbcv fgh fghfgh fghfgh fgh f";
?>

but textarea is still empty on load.
Replacing $this with $form does not help.
Version of chronoforms is 6

What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

The PHP action code should NOT have php tags
