[CLOSED] SelectedItem for MultiSelect Ext 2.5.2 Webforms

[LAEUser]

I am having trouble setting a selected item for a multiselect. This is from code behind.

 MultiSelect msParam = new MultiSelect();
            msParam.ID = "paramid__40";
            msParam.FieldLabel = "mytitle"
            msParam.MultiSelect = true;
... 
store created and loaded
---
msParam.SelectedItems.Clear();
                        msParam.SelectedItems.Add(new Ext.Net.ListItem { Text = "Board President", Value =  "Board President" });
                        msParam.UpdateSelectedItems();

Here is the generated script on the page. you can see it add the selecteditems. you can see on the image it does not. any suggestions. thanks

EDIT: I have just tried msParam.SetValue(value); and that is working. Can you clarify why the msParam.SelectedItems.Add works for combobox and not multiselect. Thanks

multiselect is kind of specialized multicombobox. I think the multicombobox works fine with the .AddSelectedItem() approach but, again, its a multicombobox. :)

For example, multiselects can have their items reordered by dragging if you enable so. I don't believe multiComboBoxes supports that.

This might be helpful: MultiSelect & ItemSelector

Maybe you are also interested in this old post for a working version (although from Ext.NET 1.x): [CLOSED] Set MultiSelect selected items during DirectEvent

I hope this helps clarify it.
