How can I change the dropdown field value based on conditions?

I've used the conditional statement a lot, but I can't figure this out, or if it's achievable. 

What I want to do is this. If the dropdown menu of paper types = Canvas Matte, or Canvas metallic, then the field margin = 2". In other words, if canvas is chosen, I want to force the dropdown field for margin to = 2". 

Can that be done?

Hi,

You can use the "Update/Calculate Field" option and add the following condition:

I have tested it on a clone of your form and it is working.

Please let us know if you require any further assistance.

Brilliant! Thank you. That worked great. 

OK, this worked brilliantly, but it has an unintended side effect. When you choose anything other than CANVAS - STANDARD MATTE from the dropdown menu, the "margin" drop down menu resets itself to be blank. 

Is there something I can add to this condition to stop that from happening. 

Now with this brilliant fix, I select size, and margin, then paper type, and the margin gets reset. 

I'm so close......

Yes, that is the intended behavior, if the condition is not met, it clears the value.

I suggest you add the Margin field after the Paper type so if it's not Canvas, nothing will then be cleared on the Margin field.

That's what I ended up doing. Thanks Vanessa. I'm surprised at how much logic is in this form now! 

thanks for the answers.
