getSelected() method not resetting.

[hassan]

Hi,

i was working on MVC project and rendered the filemanager in view with helpers.

after first loading the filemanager i did select a file and using "getSelected()" method, it returns an array of "FileManagerEntry" for each selected file.

when you load the second time it shows no files selected and in this case when i call the same "getSelected()" method, still it returns  1 record. i was expecting to be 0.  can you please let me know what would be the issue.

 

Thanks

Regards

Hassan.

Hi Hassan,

In order to test the behavior reported I added a button to the Basic Usage Demo of the FileManager that would alert the selected files/folders:

function getSelectedItems(e) {
        var filemanager = $("#filemanager").getKendoFileManager();
        var notification = '';
        if (!(filemanager.getSelected())) {
            notification = "Nothing selected"
        } else {
            console.log(filemanager.getSelected());
            notification = 'Files/folders selected: ' + filemanager.getSelected().map(x => x.name).join(' ,');
        }
        kendo.alert(notification);
    }

On initial load there are no files/folders selected. Upon navigating into a folder, but without selecting a file the folder is actually selected and is displayed as a result. Selecting a file in the folder changes the selection to the file. Here is a screencast to demonstrate the above. Am I missing something in the scenario you have? Can you share additional details in order to reproduce the behavior, in case the above does not clarify what you have observed?
