Clear placeholder

[bsr203]

Is there a way to clear the placeholder. If I try placeholder=' ' (with a blank space), or placeholder='' , it still shows 'Add a tag'. Can you provide an option to clear it (may check for empty string)

Hi @bsr203.

To change the placeholder's default value you should use the tagsInputConfig provider:

app.config(function(tagsInputConfigProvider) {
    tagsInputConfigProvider.setDefaults('tagsInput', {
        placeholder: ''
    });
});

Keep in mind that by doing that all tags-input elements in your application will use the same default value.

Kind regards.

thanks.. it indeed work. but, a small issue. if I enter some text, and clear it (backspace), then the text marker (blinking cursor position indicator) disappears. that is, it is there first time, but not after you enter something and clear. Once I remove the tagsInputConfigProvider , it works fine. can you please have a look.

Of course! The input's width is automatically calculated based on its content, when there is any, or on its placeholder width when the input is empty. I totally forgot that.

There could be a minimum width to address situations like this. I'll think more about it.

I've just pushed a fix (12b5beba230304fd22b6fef8eb613f6133860c0a) into master which resolves the input width problem.

Kind regards.
