Hi,

• Please review this for the checkbox: Coral Checkbox Default Checked Option.

• The Coral Numberfield does not appear to support a defaultValue: Granite UI Numberfield Documentation.

I am not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish, but you could explore the use of cq:template, which will give you an initial value. http://www.sgaemsolutions.com/2018/02/cqtemplate-and-cqtemplatepath.html 

Hope this helps!
