Drop down menu to select front matter in template

Use case or problem

I use templates to create new knowledge or certain kinds of meetings. Then I add front matter to characterize the type of knowledge or meeting. In some cases the values for front matter are predefined. It is tedious to recall and input those values everytime

Proposed solution

It would be good to see front matter (in some cases) with a drop down or a view of predefined values (radio buttons) to pick from.

Something like they have in Notion. You can define fields at top of a template to characterise it. And then create views /tables using that front matter.

Current workaround (optional)

Manual recall and input every time. I use a reference sheet to remember.

MetaEdit plugin can solve this by using auto properties in setting.s Also supercharged links help, but its complex to quick start
