Set Form Field action not setting Dropdown or Choice chips on first press

Has your issue been reported?

• I have searched the existing issues and confirm it has not been reported.
• I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

On our Programs Page, we have a set of Set Form Field actions to load a Form with data from a selected Firebase document. The document is loaded with the page load and the Set Form Field actions triggered by selecting the document from a Row of Containers with the Actions assigned to the Containers.

When first selected, the Text Field Set Form Field actions correctly set Text Fields to the data, but Drop Down and Choice Chips are not set.

When pressed a second time all the Set Form Field actions work correctly. All Text Fields, Drop Down and Choice Chips in the form are set.

Expected Behavior

On the first press, we would expect the Set Form Field actions to set Text Fields, Drop Downs and Choice Chips.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create Project with Firebase with Document to hold the data.
2. Create Form with Text Fields, Drop Downs, and Choice Chips
3. Create a Container (or Button) with Set Form Field actions using data read from Firebase.
4. Run a Test build and press the Container (or Button) once. See that the Drop Down and Choice Chips are not set.
5. Press the Container (or Button) again and the Drop Down and Choice Chips are set properly.

Reproducible from Blank

• The steps to reproduce above start from a blank project.

Your video appears to use set options rather than one loaded from a Firebase document. See the project referenced by the Bug Report Code. Both Programs and ProgramAddEdit pages exhibit this issue when Set Form Field from data from dynamic children from a Row.

I have attached a video which shows the issue.

@hariprasadms @aemelyanovff Have you been able to reproduce this? You can see from the video I have posted above the issue is demonstrated.

@hariprasadms @aemelyanovff Is there any update please? This is still marked 'Waiting for User Response', but we have responded 4 days ago!

@agreaves this lack of response is what is super frustrating about working with the team!

Hey @KeepTrackSolutions - I looked at your project and above mentioned page (Programs). You are loading the data while page load and displaying the data after form container is loaded. The fields value status is not in sync until form is loaded. Basically you should do some adjustments in the action you got in the container. You can make use of components to make it work as expected.

I can confirm that data display for both dropdown and choice chips fields are woking as expected. In your case, the action which is setting the form display visibility and fields values needs a bit of modification. It is mostly to do with action configurations.

General note - The main goal of this Git repository is to examine the issue steps and determine whether or not the issue is a bug. Normally, we wouldn't check app logics and configurations and recommend changes (In this case, users should go to FF support team to get more help). The more and clearer the details that were initially provided with the issue, sooner the issue is looked into and its status decided. We prioritise those issues with clear details, so any lag in the details is expected to result in a delayed response. I hope it's useful for you you. Regards

@hariprasadms Thank you, we have managed to get this working by making sure that the Container holding the Form is displayed/visible before the Set Form Field action is called for Dropdowns or Choice Chips.

It is interesting that this was working for Text Fields even when the Form was hidden...
