setting formcontrol value when complex=true does not display selected item text.

[jaxuk]

I'm using complex="true" with an object which has the properties id and name. But upon Setting the formcontrols value to the id of the object the text box remains blank. I would have expected it to contain the name value of the object. Is this by design?

<type-ahead formControlName="Author" [suggestions]="obs_authors$" placeholder="Select the author" class="form-control" complex="true" ></type-ahead>

Definitely not.

The problem might be in the fact that you use complex without the brackets. The DOM element should look like this:

<type-ahead formControl="Author" [suggestions]="obs_authors$"
            placeholder="Select the author" class="form-control" 
            [complex]="true"></type-ahead>

Please let use know if this helps.
