How can I apply a Default Value type Enum to an Attribute
RTC 4.0.2
I would like to handle the default value of an enumeration per Workitem Type.
I tried using a Custom Attribute and a Build-In. With both I was not able
1) under Attribute Customization/Default Values - ADD - with Provider Enumeration List - Priority
2) Types and Attributes - Type Story - edit Priority
==> Default Value is not enabled !!
I tried the same with provider Multi-Line-HTML and was able to apply it to the Description
Any Idea what I missed

Accepted answer
To me it doesn't seem to be possible as the Default Literal is a property of the Enumeration and not of the attribute the enumeration is linked with.
Workaround is to create different enumerations for different workitem types.

Is it possible to define a default value for Enumeration type?
I have used unassigned value for 'Priority' field and made it as mandatory field. But work item with unassigned priority is getting saved as it is set to default, I wanted to restrict the work item save for mandatory fields having 'unassigned' value. Can anyone please suggest me on this.
