Set default value

[tylerthedeveloper]

is this possible?

i'd like have a default address selected

[bhavya95]

@tylerthedeveloper you can use textInputProps textInputProps={{value: 'default value'}}

[tylerthedeveloper]

@bhavya95 then once you try to change it immediately resets itself because the value is bound to that ...

Can you provide more clarification?

[tylerthedeveloper]

• i set the value to an item that has state with useState
• I then set that to the value based on your suggestion
• this did preset the value
• however when i try to edit or click x on the input it resets it back to the original state value

[tylerthedeveloper]

All I have is

const [location, setLocation] = useState();

<PlaceInput ... onSelect={place => setLocation(place))} textInputProps={{ autoCorrect: false, value: location || "El Paso, Texas" }} .. />

[tylerthedeveloper]

any thoughts @jaing ?

[jaing]

can you try with a query prop?

query: this.props.query || '',

[tylerthedeveloper]

so that worked when hardcoded, but I fetch current location (standard) and set it to that, and it never re-renders, even though console.log(currentLocation) will show the correct output

Please try 1.1.5. Component now will update a query value on prop change and there is a new config to clear query on palce select
