SingleSelect once an item is selected, there is no way to select default blank

I have a singleselect drop down list and once I select a value from the list, there is no way for me to de-select that and select default ( blank ) value.  This is very much necessary for us, in case the user selects an item and want to reset and save the form and come back and select it at a later point, there is no way they can do it.

Hi Gajendra,

You can add a blank value to your Item List, and then use validation to ensure the user selects a non-blank value.

Thanks Stephen for quick reply.

This seems like a workaround. We have 100s of drop downs and making this change will require lot of changes on our end. I never had to do this with any drop downs before. Is that something you all can do it as part of the select control?

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Hi Gajendra,

The other option is to use some sort of form clear function, and reset the Single Select using setData(“”).
