Set default field values based on view
Sam Roberts
Currently we can set a default value for fields. But if I'm in a particular view, we sometimes need a different default field value (for that view). For example, if I have created a view of all tasks in the "office hour" category, I would want any new task created (while I am in that view) to default to the office hour category. And if I'm in another view (such as the "work hours" category), I would want any new task created to default to the work hours category. Right now, whatever the field default is will be applied no matter what view I am in. Notion is a good example of how this feature could work.

Hiya Sam Roberts, thanks for this post! I have a few more questions for you:
- Can you provide more examples of the different views and their corresponding default field values?
- Are there any specific fields that you would like this feature to be applied to?
- How would you like the system to behave if a task is created outside of any specific view?
