QGIS – Digitizing Points and Autofilling Attribute Value from Persistent Form in QGIS

Question

I need to manually digitize elevation point maps. (using QGIS 3.24)
Instead of the default QGIS method ( enter point + enter height), I would like to inverse the sequence:
specify the height and then digitize all points with the height automatically set in the attribute table.

I suppose this should be possibly with a persistent form where I'd enter the desired value and subsequently activate the edit/add point function.

Is such a thing possible in QGIS?

Answer 1

1. Layer Properties
2. Attributes form
3. Drag and drop designer. Drag your elevation field to Form layout
4. Set a default value

All points you add will get the value. Digitize then change the default value when you need other values.
