Dropdown list with filter enabled is giving selected item as undefined

[Mallikarjun BaddurParticipant]

Hi,

We have few dropdowns in our application with fixed height and filter enabled. When filtered, the remaining space is showing as empty as this is fixed height component.

If we clicked on empty area even though there is selected item in UI it is giving ‘undefined’ item for ‘getSelectedItem’ API.

This can be seen in the following fiddle.

Hi Stanislav,

Please use below link.
https://www.jseditor.io/?key=dropdown-issue-1-2

Steps:
1. Enter text ‘Bi’ in search box of dropdrown.
2. Click on white-space shown at bottom of items(Don’t click on item)
3. Now dropdown shows as first item is selected.
4. Now try to get the selected item using API. Click on ‘Show the Selected Item’ button, this will give alert message with NULL value.

My Question is when dropdown is selected with first item why getSelectedItem API is giving NULL value?

Hello Mallikarjun,

Because this way you don’t actually select anything, this is the reason you get ‘null’.
