Start with entire form expanded? #805

Closed tonebender closed 6 years ago

tonebender commented 6 years ago

Sorry if this has been asked before -- I looked but couldn't find it. When I create a form from a schema, and load it with some data (using startval), it initially only shows the fields that actually have data from the startval. I want it to show the whole form (the whole schema) including empty fields (regardless if they have default values or not). Is that possible?

Had this issue as well and found solution elsewhere. Use the line below to populate your data and show the entire form. editor.root.setValue(data, true);

Or actually, I take that back. :-| It didn't really work. When I do for example: editor.root.setValue(my_json_object_with_values, true); it does not expand all the fields from the schema. It still only shows the properties that have data from the data object and I still need to click on Object Properties and check all the properties I want to view.

Can you explain more in detail how I should use editor.root.setValue(data, true) ?

Thanks!
