I have a radio button that has Yes or No as options. I want the field to default to "No". I have it set to do so and it is filled in on my previews but it is not working on the actual projects the form is attached to. Any ideas why it isn't working?

I checked the field defaults and all of the forms it is on.

Do you have the custom form you're referring to on relevant project templates? If you have it on project templates with values already selected at the template level, any project created with the template should carry over those values. Are you seeing otherwise?

If this helped you, please mark correct to help others : )

The field currently has to be filled in by the assignee as it won't default to "No". The value they enter is staying with the project so that is working as expected.

I have checked the default setting multiple times and still won't work on new projects.

If the form is already attached to your projects, changing the default value of the field will not be applied to the field on those projects. The default value is only set on new records going forward.
