[TYPO3-english] Setting Default Values in the Appearance Tab

[Chris Crawford]

Hello, 

Is there a way to set default values in the Appearance tab of a content element? 

For instance, I would like to set the width of an image to 350 by default, but I want the user to be able to override it by changing the width in the Image Adjustments section. 

I know I can do something like "tt_content.image.20.maxW = 350" in the page template, but that seems to override the width value that the user types into the form.

I've searched and searched, but I cannot seem to find the answer.

Thank you. -Chris Crawford
