Add project defaults for Form Orientation, Label width and Read Only Style

7

As the title says, please add project defaults for Form Orientation, Label width and Read Only style. To keep an application consistent I would like all dataviews to (by default) use the same values. However, if I want to use anything different from the Mendix default (Control, Horizontal and 3) I have to manually edit every single dataview in my application.

So I would really like to be able to set a default value on project (or perhaps Layout) level that will be used when I add a new Dataview.

You can achieve this with a workaround in Mendix 7. Just  create a Page_Template for your pages, add a dataview to it and set the desired properties. But it is indeed quite tedious and it is not a "one size fits all"-solution. 

To have the possibility to set these properties application wide in project settings would be much nicer.
