I've started to build a canvas app based on my model driven app. Two of my columns are choice columns with defaults and they're having issues in the canvas app, if I take the default off they work as they should. This is what I'm seeing in the canvas app... the defaults are showing as their applicable value (numbers) on the choice column, rather than the label name. Any idea how to sort this please? Any guidance is very much appreciated.
@Inogic I tried to earlier and have just tried again, but it just keeps whirling. I'll try some different browsers and will try again in a day or two if I have no success. Thanks again.

For this, you first need to unlock the change properties for the field you want to edit by following these steps:
Click on the Option Set box.
In the Properties pane, navigate to the “Advanced” section.
Click on “Unlock to change properties” (as shown in the screenshot below).
After clicking that, the properties will be unlocked, and you will be able to make changes. Then, set the DefaultSelectedItems property of the ComboBox to: Choices('Optionset Field Name').Value
For example, in our scenario, the Option Set field name is Category, so the expression looks like this as shown in below screenshot: Choices('Category (Accounts)').Value
By using the above expression, you will get the Label (instead of the numeric value) displayed in the Option Set box.
@bscarlavai33 I haven't a clue! I'm very new to Power Apps and particularly canvas apps, I was assuming that the choice columns would work the same way as with the model driven app. It's only the default value that displays a numerical number, the other options are as we would expect.
How are you setting the default value? It seems like you're using the Id and not the Value?
