如何防止在字段上进行选项卡时选择angular-ui-select默认值

Question

When tabbing over our angular-ui-select fields, the first value is chosen automatically, even though the user did not intend to select it.

I checked GitHub and see this issue , which seems to contain a fix, but I don't want to edit the source code if there is a way to do what I need within the supported API.

Please note: We are using angular-ui-select version 17.0 in our app. We had to stop at this version because it was the last version that allowed us to pass in an expression to the repeat attribute, rather than a string, which is critical to one of our major components.

Posting here because the CONTRIBUTING.md said to.

Answer 1

You can use remove-selected attribute to the <ui-select> tag:

Answer 2

This came down to what I consider a bug in ui-select. If you have ui-select automatically open when the user tabs into the field, the first item is automatically selected for a single-select field. I created a version of the code that doesn't do this and pushed it to bower.

Check it out here if you need it: https://github.com/granteagon/ui-select-temp

I intend to build a version I can pull request, but there are a few tests that I need to update with the knowledge of not automatically selecting. Deadlines.

I also would like to refactor my changes to just fix a bug as opposed to using a new attribute, but that's my opinion and I have yet to clear it with the ui-select project team.
