Zugg Software :: View topic - Feature request: "copy value to default" button.

A simple button which copies the current value of the variable to the "default" field for that variable. It could probably be tucked in next to the "use default" check box in the settings editor. Currently to update the default for a variable (especially a string list or db type, and I have some enormous ones) I have to switch from auto type to string literal, copy, paste, switch back... A button would save a decent amount of time.

Oh yeah, I miss that button from Zmud. I typically drop back to the command line and do a #var variable %null, but it's messy either way.

I'll add that to the wish-list for a future version.

Re-reading the initial post I believe I was thinking of the 'Set to Default' where back in Zmud it would take the default value and set the current value to the default value. I most used that button in Zmud to clear out a large list that would otherwise be time consuming to clear out. It looks like (from a second reading) that you are looking to do the opposite, take the current value and set the default value with it. I suppose they both have their usefulness, even if I was thinking the opposite.

Yeah, both would be great.
