I'm loading JSON data into an igCombo via the dataSource property. I've set the valueKey of the igCombo to a property of the JSON data. I would like to select an item from the igCombo by the value of the property set by the valueKey.
---------------------
var jsonData = [ {textValue: "this is dummy data", importantId: 1 }, {textValue: "this is also dummy data", importantId: 2 } ]
$("#checkboxSelectCombo1").igCombo({ width: "270px", dataSource: jsonData, textKey: "textValue", valueKey: "importantId" });
//Now I need to add code that would select the second item
//("{textValue: "this is also dummy data", importantId: 2}")
//from the igCombo.
//The API suggests that the "select" method
//(http://www.igniteui.com/help/api/2015.2/ui.igcombo#methods:select)
//should be used.
//Neither of these lines work as expected.
$("#checkboxSelectCombo1").igCombo("select", jsonData[1]);
$("#checkboxSelectCombo1").igCombo("select", {importantId: 2});
$("#checkboxSelectCombo1").igCombo("select", 2);
