@hello299 ,
Could you please share the use-case for this scenario?

[hello299]

How can we set default value as "" to a textfield?

[Rohit_Utreja]

Hi @hello299 

Default value can be set in the textfield node by setting a property value as "".

You can check the details of all supported properties at "/libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield/render.jsp".

I hope, it helps.

Thanks

Yes you can use any value even "" as default value with the

<title
    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
    sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
    fieldLabel="Title"
    name="./title"
    value=""/>

Hi @hello299 ,

Yes! You can achieve that, kindly refer below snippet.

<demo
    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
    sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
    fieldLabel="Demo"
    name="./demo"
    value="&quot;&quot;"/>

This will help you to pre-set value in dialog, additionally you can set it in many different way eg.

• cq:template
• Sling Model

Hope that helps!

Regards,

Santosh

@hello299  If none of the mentioned solutions are not working. Write a script which will set the value to "" 

if (isEmpty(value)) {
return '"';
}
