OK, my first solution (using context) didn't work out :-( but i tried another way, i dont like it very much, but it could help you out.
following my example .py:
from openerp.osv import orm, fields
class object_one(orm.Model):
_name = "object.one"
_columns = {
'name':fields.char('Name', size=128, required=True),
'many_ids':fields.many2many('object.many',string="Many Objects")
}
class object_many(orm.Model):
_name = "object.many"
_columns = {
'name':fields.char('Name', size=128, required=True),
'sel':fields.selection([('1','One'),
('2','Two'),
('3','Three')],
string="Selection", required=True),
}
def _get_sel(self, cr, uid, context={}):
many_id = self.search(cr, uid, [('create_uid','=',uid)], context=context, order="create_date desc", limit=1)
if many_id:
many = self.browse(cr, uid, many_id[0], context)
return many.sel
return False
_defaults = {
'sel':_get_sel
}
following my example .xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<openerp>
<data>
<record id="one_form" model="ir.ui.view">

</openerp>
you will see, every many-object created by an user, will have the last selection (sel) get from db. so its more of a workaround for your problem.
hope this will help you.
