What I am trying to achieve is to populate a child combobox with items which depend on a \'parent\' combobox.
To clarify the - or better my - problem, I have created
You should refer currentGroup to populate the options inside items combobox:
You dont need $scope.currentItems at all. So just update the last 2 lines inside the controller to:
$scope.currentItem = $scope.currentGroup.Items[0];
Now to remove the empty option, use super easy and light-weight ng-change:
Define the corresponding change handler in the controller:
$scope.groupChanged = function(){
$scope.currentItem = $scope.currentGroup.Items[0];
}
