Forms Support

You can use the DropDownTree in template-driven or reactive forms, and within a FormField.

The component accepts values of the complex (objects) or the primitive (strings, numbers, or other) type. To specify the value type, set the valuePrimitive property. By default, it is set to false.

Template-Driven Forms

The template-driven forms enable you to bind the DropDownTree to the model by using the ngModel directive.

The following example demonstrates how to accomplish a two-way data binding when the model field is a complex value.
