I have set some text item properties to have initial values. However, when the user navigates into that item, the initial value is highlighted. In my application, the initial value is only part of the data required in that field. For example, one field is an ID. The ID usually begins with "A", so I have set the initial value to "A", to remove one keystroke.

How can I prevent this value from being highlighted?
