[SOLVED] Clear selected option in ui-select angular

Clear selected option in ui-select angular

Anyone know how to clear the selected value of an ui-select box in angular?

I want the functionality of select2 where you have a small x in the selectbox. Doesn't look like it's got the allow-clear method that select2 got.

Solution

If you are using the select2 theme there is an allow-clear option on the ui-select-match directive that does this for you. You will have the x on the right and you can clear it by clicking it. https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-select/wiki/ui-select-match

Quick example:

<ui-select-match allow-clear="true" placeholder="Select or search a country in the list...">
  <span>{{$select.selected.name}}</span>
</ui-select-match>

This does not currently work using either the bootstrap or selectize theme.
