When I insert data I want it not to default, but in change mode I want it to default to the right object. (the previous selected during insert).
After searching through different examples I finally got it to work as I want it.
In this example I'm selecting a customer for a work log administration.
There are two parts to it.
1. A controller part.
2. A HTML part.
I'm using bootstrap for my HTML formatting, but the example can be used plain also.
Here is the HTML part:
<select ng-model="SelectedCustomer" class="form-control" ng-options="Customer.customername for Customer in CustomerData.Customers.items track by Customer.customername" style="width: 444px;" required="required"> </select>
All I do in the controller for the update part is set the right model cutomer from my releated object like:
$scope.SelectedCustomer=$scope.WorklogData.currentWorklog.customer;
So the model in ng-model really reflects the object.
