UPD: It doesn't work only when creating an item, when updating it works.

Unfortunately with the new version (3.15.0) the bug has not been fixed.... And it’s been almost 4 months now

[bva999]

private MultiChoice_selection = (event: React.FormEvent<HTMLDivElement>, item: IDropdownOption): void => {
    const {
      changedValue
    } = this.state;

    try {
      let selectedItemArr;
      if (changedValue === null && this.props.fieldDefaultValue !== null) {
        selectedItemArr = [];
        this.props.fieldDefaultValue.forEach(element => {
          selectedItemArr.push(element);
        });
      }
      else
        selectedItemArr = !changedValue ? [] : changedValue;

      if (item.selected) {
        selectedItemArr.push(item.key);
      }
      else {
        const i = selectedItemArr.indexOf(item.key);
        if (i >= 0) {
          selectedItemArr.splice(i, 1);
        }
      }

      this.setState({ changedValue: selectedItemArr });
      this.props.onChanged(this.props.columnInternalName, selectedItemArr);
    } catch (error) {
      console.log(`Error MultiChoice_selection`, error);
    }
  }

When Item is Created changedValue is a text value.
And this lines causes an error:

else
       selectedItemArr = !changedValue ? [] : changedValue;

     if (item.selected) {
       _selectedItemArr.push(item.key); ( ERROR HERE!!! )
     }

Because in this case selectedItemArr is not an array but text!!
PLEASE FIX IT! It’s been 4 months!!!

@bva999 Thanks for raising the bug and confirming that it's still an issue as it was not marked as resolved as part of the latest release.
We welcome PRs to help resolve issues (@GuidoZam many thanks!) and since you knew where the issue was happening and what was causing it, you could have sent a PR to help speed up the resolution.
Every single maintainer of this repository works on it outside of working hours using their own personal time, so it will take whatever it takes for things to get fixed. We do our best with the time we have and greatly appreciate help from the community. If a person raises an issue and a PR is created to fix it, personally, this is a priority for me as more time was already invested in it.

PR merged and the fix should be available on the beta release within a few minutes.
