OnChange when DefaultValues are set

[akiarostami]

Hello,

I have a form with a set of DefaultValues. I am using OnChange to monitor the text change, but it only gets fired when a user types in something, not when the initial value is set using DefaultValues. Is there a way to have OnChange fired when DefaultValues are set as well? Or is there a different event I can use for that?

Thank you.

you mean trigger?

Thank you! This works. However, it seems that using watch slows things down significantly. Is this something you noticed in other places as well?

you should watch a single input, not all of them :)

Haha... of course! I am only watching 2 fields, and see a significant performance change.

if that's the case -> useWatch, you can isolate that re-render within your component level.
