How to set default selected option in md-select component with a object ?

[William Krieg]

Hello everybody,

At first sorry for my english.

I want to set the default value from my md-select.
This default value is an object. When i work with a "simple" value for exemple a string or a number it's work but when i set object the value is not selected :

<md-select placeholder="Secteur" style="width:100%" [(ngModel)]="currentSociete.secteur" name="secteur"> <md-option *ngFor="let secteur of secteurs" [value]="secteur "> {{item.nom}} </md-option> </md-select>

Do you have a solution ? Thank you for your help

Hello William,
you set  property for example

use [value]="secteur.secteruId" instead of just [value]="secteur "

and use {{secteur.nom}} instead of {{item.nom}}

Thanks,

Use 'compareWith' option to let select know how to distinguish options.

See https://angular.io/api/forms/SelectControlValueAccessor#caveat-option-selection for additional details.
