My reset button isn't working completely

I added a form reset button to my fillable form, and despite all the fields being selected for reset under button action properties, not all the fields clear when the button is applied.  Some of them do, but not all of them.

I have tried deleting and recreating the button multiple times, as well as resetting the button properties multiples times.  Nothing seems to work.

Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thank you

The reset doesn't clear fields, it sets them to their default value. Check on the 'Options" tab in the Field Properties Dialog

Another possibility is that there are calculation or format scripts that are setting values on the fields after reset.
