doubts about select and dropdown operation


Topic: doubts about select and dropdown operation

yeisonvelez11 asked 6 years ago

I have seen the documentation for the dropdown. I have several questions about it:

1- Is it necessary to use this structure?

{ value: '1', label: 'Option 1' }, { value: '2', label: 'Option 2' }, { value: '3', label: 'Option 3' },
 
or I can simply include something like this:

<option * ngFor = "let item of aClient" [value] = "item.id"> {{item.name}} </ option>

2- from the component, how can I get the current value of the dropdown?

in this documentation:

https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/components/dropdowns/

3- How can I obtain, set and detect the change of some dropdown option?

4- Is there something to write and autocomplete some element of the dropdown
thanks

Dear @yeisonvelez11 

Let me answer your question in order in which you have asked them:

1. There's no possibility to use another scheme for constructing data for Material Select than {value: '', label: ''} object.

2. Please check our Select Documentation. There's described, how to get selected value.

3. There's no built-in feature for this behavior. You have to write your own feature, like observable or something similar.

4. For now, there's no such possibility.

Best Regards,

Damian
