Does anyone know of a way of dynamically setting or clearing the selected items in a Multi-Select. When I try my form crashes.

  Hi everyone. In iForm 7.5 you can now set the dynamic value of a multi-select using an array of options like the example below. The options in quotes are the key values of the options desired to be selected.

  ["red", "green", "blue"]

  Hi Phil, can you let me know what you are trying on your form in the dynamic value, and how many options you have in the list?

  Hi Tony,
  My form has a select with an associated multi-select,
  i.e. Does the tree have a planting defect Y/N ? then a multi-select to allow setting the defect type(s), the multi-select is hidden if the user selects No. What I was trying to do was clear any previous multi-select entries if the user goes back and changes Y to N.
  My multi-select has 13 options, if I put
  if( test_field > 0 ) {0}
  in the dynamic value the form crashes.
  I raised a zendesk but Joe wasn't sure of a way to do it.
  Thanks,
  Phil

  Anyone figure this out? How to set a DV for a multi-select, or how to clear selected items?

  I'm having the same issue/need to be able to clear multi-select based on previous select element. Needs to clear if user changes their answer on the select element.

  I am having the same issue but only on iOS devices. Works fine on Android. Has there been an update?

  Is it possible to filter a picklist based on the previous values of a multiselect?
