    Set default value depending on actual time.

    Hello everyone,

    I'm trying to set a default value in a DropDown box depending on the current time. (substring-after(now(), "T"))

    To be more specific, I would like my DropDown box to have as default value

    • "AM" if the current time is between 06:00:01 and 12:00:00.
    • "PM" if the current time is between 12:00:01 and 18:00:00.
    • "NIGHT" if the current time is between 18:00:01 and 06:00:00.

    I tried with "Rules" and "Set default value" but can't figure out a solution.

    Thanks for help!

    Hi - can you attach a sample form showing what you've currently tried to the Options tab? Off-hand, I'd say use rules for this, so you can use conditions.
