To set 1 as a Default value of a dropdown in a form

Hi Appies,
I have “Stock” table with “Products” and “Units” columns.
From detail view of “Products” when I click on +, it takes me to edit a form.
In this form I update Units to 5 and next time when I open the form It show 5. Here, what I am trying to do is, to set 1 as a default value, when I open the form next time.

So far, what I have tried is:
from Data section > “Stock” table > column view > edit column “Units”, under this I found (Initial value - The default starting value for this column) and I updated 1. Unfortunately it still shows as 5.

The Initial value expression is only applied when a row is first added. If you want the expression applied every time the row is edited, enable Reset on edit? for that column.

Great, it works with the “Form View”. When I am in “Detail View” it still shows as 5.

In “Detail View”, I have added a “Behavior” that save the input to another google sheet, as I have opted “Form View” edit as “Do not display”. Is there a way, to show default value as 1 in “Detail View”, so I may increase and decrease with the behavior.
