Django inline formset, check DELETE

I'd like to check the DELETE checkbox in inline formset... but I'd like to check only the "extra" lines (rows) e.g. when editing I'd like the populated lines (rows) to remain unchecked, but the extra ones checked until I uncheck them (I'll probably check for the content of input fields with js).

I've managed to check the filled (in editing) lines (rows), but the extra ones remained unchecked... with the following code under init:

self.initial[DELETION_FIELD_NAME] = True

Then I've tried the following under Meta > Widgets:

DELETION_FIELD_NAME:CheckboxInput(attrs={'checked':'checked','class':'test',}),

Which didn't work... I can't even set the class of the checkbox...

EDIT: This is not in admin inline formset.

Thanks!

you can do this by iterating trough the formset:

    for f in formset.initial_forms:
        f.fields["DELETE"].initial = True

    for f in formset.extra_forms:
        f.fields["DELETE"].initial = False

I hope this helped.
