Hi,

I want to show the default value next to my textbox. I don’t want to populate the default value but I want to show next to my input fields for an idea.

Is it possible to do that ? Is there any function to get the default value from schema ?

Thanks,  
Vijay

Want to show it like a placeholder. Instead of populating it.

Hi @vijay,

Each renderer receives the (sub)schema associated with it via our bindings. So the default value can be accessed via `schema.default`. Then you can render it in any way you want, including as a placeholder.
