Extjs 4 combobox default value

Question

I\'m migrating my application from ExtJs 3 to 4 version. I have several comboboxes at my formPanel, and previously I\'ve used hiddenName and all that stuff to submit valueFi

Answer 1

The best way for doing this is that listen to afterrender event and then set the default value in the callback function.

See this code:

new Ext.form.field.ComboBox({
    //This is our default value in the combobox config
    defaultValue: 0,
    listeners: {
        //This event will fire when combobox rendered completely
        afterrender: function() {
           //So now we are going to set the combobox value here.
           //I just simply used my default value in the combobox definition but it's possible to query from combobox store also.
           //For example: store.getAt('0').get('id'); according to Brik's answer.
           this.setValue(this.defaultValue);    
        }
    }
});
