◆ setGuiDefaultValueOverride()

void QgsProcessingParameterDefinition::setGuiDefaultValueOverride ( const QVariant &  value)
inline

Sets the default value to use for the parameter in GUI widgets.

Caller takes responsibility to ensure that value is a valid input for the parameter subclass.

Usually the guiDefaultValueOverride() is a invalid variant, which indicates that the standard defaultValue() should be used in the GUI. In cases where it is decided that a previous default value was inappropriate, setting a non-invalid default GUI value can be used to change the default value for the parameter shown to users when running algorithms without changing the actual defaultValue() and potentially breaking third party scripts.
