AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

I know that Kitting won't do swatches but that options/variants will. I tried to blend the two functions together whereby the variant of "choose color" reveals a larger swatch of color, but it is the kitting function where you purchase, however I can't toggle off the requirement that a Variant be actually chosen before checkout. Here is a screen shot showing the RED error message which requires me to pick a View Color before adding to cart. It's a little confusing for customers. Any work around or suggestion on how I might do this?

Make one of the color choices selected by default. There was some piece of code floating around in forums on how to make a default selection for an option. You will need to do some customization in App_Code/PageHelper.cs. The method to update I think is BuildProductChoices.
