How to clear the selection of a IgxDropDownComponent?
posted

Hi.


I would like to clear a Dropdown selection.

The "setSelectedItem" function of IgxDropDownComponent only accepts values between the Ids of the Dropdown Items list (https://github.com/IgniteUI/igniteui-angular/blob/b74de693f1/projects/igniteui-angular/src/lib/drop-down/drop-down.component.ts#L265).. As such, setting the value to "-1" or "undefined" / "null" has no effect.

Shouldn't there be a more elegant solution instead of calling ngOnDestroy() on the component for something as simple as clearing a selection?

Thank you for your time.


Regards,
