TextInput or BooleanInput default value not dynamic.

[david-hov]

What you were expecting: if component inside SimpleForm updated change children defaultValues

What happened instead: Keeps the first defaultValue

Related code:

<SimpleForm>
      <FormDataConsumer>
          {({ formData }) => formData.value === 'AAA' ?
           <AAA /> : <BBB />
          }
      </FormDataConsumer>
</SimpleForm>

/// AAA
<BooleanInput defaultValue={true} source='sameSource' label='AAA' />

/// BBB
<BooleanInput defaultValue={false} source='sameSource' label='BBB' />

The default value is set on mount. That's a limitation of react-hook-form. If you need this feature, I suggest you open an issue on their repository. Otherwise, use a useWatch to update the current value (not the default) based on other values.
