I need to add prefield. After Number of rows -field should be another field where user can enter value. When user hits Show button to create needed node rows the field value will be copied to fields in nodes.

How to implement this? I'm thinking this could be rather simple or..?

Hm, what about using the normal 'Default value' at field edit page? Isn't it suitable?

No. User need to have acces to that field. Can't give permission to edit content types.

Ok, i see your point, i will add a button near the first row what can clone the first node's filled values to all the other node forms, in this way, you could save lot of time still, without making the UI much more complex. Do you think it would be comfortable for you?

For my case it would be best to have prefield. The field in this case is user reference field. When adding multiple nodes user first chooses right user from reference field and then that field value should copy to all nodes - when clicking "Show".

I think that prefield with copy value possibility would be very nice to have feature in many cases.
