On PowerApps, how to fill a Combo box with a default value?

This is a quick, but tricky one.

Suppose you have a Vertical Gallery to allows users to edit data from a table in the app's database.

The issue is that when the gallery is loaded, the combo box appears with no selected value - which isn't ideal.

To load the combo box with the correct value from the database, I followed these steps:

• I used the DefaultSelectedItems property. Although there are no warnings, the Default property is deprecrated;

• In that property, I set the following: {Value: ThisItem.NameOfYouColumn}.

Pretty simple, right?
