Unable to set 'selected' attribute on md-option

Unable to set ‘selected’ attribute on md-option

Receiving the following error: Can’t bind to ‘selected’ since it isn’t a known property of ‘md-option’.

Code sample:

<md-select [placeholder]="'Status'">
     <md-option *ngFor="let statusType of viewModel.StatusTypes" value="{{statusType.Id}}" (onSelect)="statusSelectionChange(statusType)" [selected]="statusType.Id == -10">
				{{statusType.Value}}
     </md-option>
</md-select>

@kara Can you explain why this isn’t needed? How would one initialize md-option where multiple checked options are permitted?

Thanks,

I was stuck with this solution initially because I wasn’t binding to the value attribute of md-option

i.e. [value]=“statusType.Id” vs. value=“{{statusType.Id}}”

In case anyone else stumbles upon this thread.
