With auto height scroll will never appear placeholder:'Select' // text to be displayed when no item is selected defaults to Select, customComparator: ()=>{} // a custom function using which user wants to sort the items. default is undefined and Array.sort() will be used in that case, limitTo: options.length // a number thats limits the no of options displayed in the UI similar to angular's limitTo pipe moreText: 'more' // text to be displayed whenmore than one items are selected like Option 1 + 5 more noResultsFound: 'No results found!' // text to be displayed when no items are found while searching searchPlaceholder:'Search' // label thats displayed in search input, searchOnKey: 'name' // key on which search should be performed this will be selective search. if undefined this will be extensive search on all keys } ```` ### Output * `change: Event` - change event when user changes the selected options * `open: Event` - open event when the dropdown toogles on * `close: Event` - close event when the dropdown toogles off ### Change detection As of now `ngx-select-dropdown` uses Default change detection startegy which means dirty checking checks for immutable data types. And in Javascript Objects and arrays are mutable. So when changing any of the @Input parameters if you mutate an object change detection will not detect it. For ex:- ```` this.options.push({id: 34, description: 'Adding new item'}); // or config.height = '200px'; ````` Both the above scenarios will not trigger the change detection. In order for the componet to detect the changes what you need to do is:- ```` this.options = [...this.options, {id: 34, description: 'Adding new item'}]; // or config = {...config, height:'200px'}; ```` ## Changelog * v0.1.0 ```` Added a change event so that user can attach a change event handler.
