Type hidden (XLSForm) not working (when trying to edit) in KoBoToolbox (Formbuilder)

[Kal_Lam]

Hi @wroos,

Would you mind having a look at the hidden question type discussed earlier. It has been used to hide a question with auto-fill response.

Hide question option, with autofill

type name label required default text city City false City_name I am collecting data from cities and would like to have the city name already in the default, and hidden to the viewer of the survey. However when I export the file, the city name is blank, despite being in default. Is there any way to hide a question and autofill it? Thanks

Reference xlsform:
Hidden Question.xls (32.5 KB)

HAVE a GREAT DAY!
