Fancytree jQuery plugin - select node

Question

I have difficulties in selecting a given node from fancytree plugin.

So, I have tried something like:

$("#tree").fancytree("getTree").visit(function(node){
    node.select(n);
});

where "n" is any number representing the node id, but it doesn'work, even if the select() function exists in documentation

Could someone help?

Could you provide a sample fiddle in order to reproduce your issue? — Hackerman, Dec 02 '14 at 20:11
Sadly, I can't reproduce it.. I struggled to find something useful for selecting a node dynamically but there is no example at all.. — rosuandreimihai, Dec 02 '14 at 20:13

var tree = $("#tree").fancytree("getTree");
var node = tree.getNodeByKey(n);
node.setSelected(true);

Maybe you also need this `node.setActive(true);`. – Mike de Klerk Oct 10 '17 at 13:03

It would seem that as of version 2.25 of fancytree, you have to BOTH do a node.setSelected(true) and a node.setActive(true) to make the tree show a selected node as actually selected. – Thomas N Nov 03 '17 at 06:58
