Of course, after than, whatever you’ve just plugged into it, will most likely not work

The solution is probably somewhere deep in the bowels of whatever you’re trying to make work

It will look obvious once you’ve figured out, that’s why it wasn’t mentioned next to the bunch of instruction you pasted into your console to install the thing

    Grey text has always been a hint / tip / example, why would it be an implicit default?

      always […] why would it be an implicit default?

      Cause that’s what I intuitively expected, because in the tools that I use daily, that how it is there. Here are some examples of other administrative web interfaces that use grey to show you the implicit default that I happen to have running and could find in like 3 minutes. So much for your overconfident “always”:

      • Proxmox PVE or PBS. Basically every dialog. Example network interface configuration: example
      • TrueNAS, example “Add Dataset”
      • OPNsense, example “Firewall Rule”, the destination port range has an implicit default and is grey:

      Note: I’m not talking about a form to fill in your name with “john doe” or whatever, and even that I can’t even remember seeing either. Cause it just says “Name:” and nobody needs an example.

        Those TrueNAS fields seem gray because they’re disabled (since it’s inherited), not because those are defaults.

          Yea I realized that only after. I agree it’s slightly different from the grey text in text fields, but it still illustrates the point because it’s also an implicit default value (that happens to be unchangable in this context). So it kinda applies, but yea not quite the same.

          inherited versus default, that is kind of splitting hair when we’re talking about user interface.
          Here the gray means “this is what it’s going to be if you don’t write something else here”

            Disagree. When it’s inherited, the gray value is not applied, because it’s defined somewhere else. It’s not a default in this case.
