[Zope3-Users] default text for dropdown widget empty selection

[Dennis Schulz]

You can override the setupWidgets() method of your formlib class and 
write something like this. (assuming that project is your dropdown field 
and your view is called MyAddingView)

def setUpWidgets(self, ignore_request=False):
        super(MyAddingView, 
self).setUpWidgets(ignore_request=ignore_request)
        self.widgets['project']._messageNoValue = "(no project)"


The thing that bothers me is that once you assign a value it is not 
possible to set it back to "no value".
Anyone knows how to fix this?
