Add support for default values in boxes's input slots #3

Closed nschoe closed 5 years ago

nschoe commented 5 years ago

We need to add a <devaultValue> tag in the XML description file, to give an input slot a default value is none is present.

After discussing it lengthy with @chewbak , we decided not to support default values at the moment, in favor of more explicit programming, -i.e. we require the user to explicitly link all inputs.

We encourage users to use Papyrus like this and see how it goes. If we have strong feedback asking for this, we will re-think the feature and maybe allow default values. We are not closed to the idea in principle, but we feel that this is the kind of requests that will come with experience and using the software.
