Reset A Form Adding New Form Fields

New Here ,

I have a four page form containing hundreds of fields, and I have set up many buttons that reset sections of the form, or in some cases just a few fields. I have done this by adding the action "Reset a Form" to the buttons, then I just selected the relevant fields from the list.
 
Now when I add new form fields, the new fields are checked on the reset list for every button that has a reset action associated with it.  I do not want the new fields reset on some unrelated part of the form. How can I stop the new fields from being automatically selected on the existing reset lists?
 
Thanks for your help!

You have to deselect those fields if they appeared checked in the listed items for each of the buttons you've created

You can run some JavaScript to reset the entire form or specific fields. The script will not change as other fields are added.

 

resetForm()

The team creating the forms are not developers so we don't know how to write JavaScript. We can probably google and figure it out, but I was hoping there was a simpler answer like a checkbox in preferences that I wasn't locating. Thanks for your help!
