Automatically Filling Instance Fields

It is possible to set up rules that ControlDraw uses to automatically populate instance data.
This can be done in two primary ways, Symbol Data values and Special Defaults
Special Defaults are entries that are made into the Default value when defining the fields in the Data Designer
Options are:
!Left PTag # Use the left #letters of the Symbol Tagname
!Left UserText # Use the left #letters of the Symbol User Text
!Caption Use the Symbol Caption
!AltCaption Use the Symbol AltCaption
!Inherit Obtain the value from the same named field in the parent instance
!Script Calculate a tag using a tagging script. This can use complex rules to work out a string value to enter
Symbol Data values are values set in in the Symbol Details - these set the value in the same named field in the symbol instances, overriding an other settings such as the Default value
