you need to set "initial" attribute of TypedChoiceField.

Thanks, I knew about the initial only on form instance and not on field :)

Hello,

I have:

class SomeForm(forms.Form):
     ...

     def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
         ...
         super(SomeForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
         ...
         self.fields['starting_location'] = forms.TypedChoiceField(
             label=_('Starting location'),
             choices=DIRECTIONS_CHOICES,
             coerce=int
         )

Now I want to choose as initial selection one random item from
DIRECTIONS_CHOICES choices but I have to do it in this __init__() method
(not in view!). How can I achieve this?

Thanks,
Martin
