Not possible to define placeholder
I'd like to define a placeholder item, in case there is no value selected upfront. This doesn't seem to work.
At the moment I solve this by adding a placeholder item into my array first and then not rendering a selection option for it, when opening the Picker Items.
categories: [
{id: 0, name: 'Choose a category'},
{id: 1, name: 'Art'},
{id: 2, name: 'Music'}
],
{_.filter(categories, cat => cat.id != 0).map(cat =>
<Picker.Item
key={cat.id}
label={cat.name}
value={cat.id}
/>
)}
Is there any other way that is better?
I would like something like just setting the placeholder via the placeholder prop on the Picker, or just use the already existing prompt prop on the picker to display this.
