Autocomplete: Clearing selection using SelectedValueChanged

[Hugo-Matias]

I have a shared List<string> of selected values that is populated by Autocomplete in default selection mode and another source as well.

I'm achieving this by using the event callback SelectedValueChanged instead of @bind-SelectedValue. My goal now is to clear the input field after a value is selected from the dropdown and passed into the OnSelectionChanged handler.

On the documentation I noticed there is a Clear method but I'm not sure how to use it. Should I create a reference to the Autocomplete component and call it on the list manipulation method? How do I do that?

Hello @Hugo-Matias
Yes, that is how you call methods on the component, add
@ref="myAutocompleteRef" to the component.
and

@code{
private Autocomplete<MyTItem,MyTValue> myAutocompleteRef;

private Task Clear(){
return myAutocompleteRef.Clear();
}
}

Something along those lines, you might have to fix syntax.

Ah I see, thanks for clarifying David. Still learning the basics and that might be useful in the future as well. Cheers!
