Topic: mdb-select - Two-way binding using a numeric value
It seems that the component mdb-select does not support two-way binding when using a numeric variable. In such a case no value is selected in the options list. If I change the variable to a string the behaviour is correct.
Any plans to change this behavior?
We have plans to change the way of adding options to the component in the future, but unfortunately I can't provide any ETA yet.
But isn't this more like a bug?
If "selectedValue" is a numeric parameter (for example 3) and the option value is '3', no option is selected.
<mdb-select [(ngModel)]="selectedValue" [options]="selectOptions" label="Media Type" ></mdb-select>

The option object accepts only strings, so in order to display option label you need to pass string to the ngModel as well. In this case it is expected behavior.
