Historically
mat-select
andmat-autocomplete
have behaved very similarly, because they were written around the same time and they share some logic by depending onmat-option
.mat-select
has to know all the option heights ahead of time so that it can position its panel correctly over the trigger. The limitation made its way intomat-autocomplete
, even though there's no reason for it to be there.While implementing the MDC-based autocomplete, I refactored some code that makes it easier to support variable-height options so these changes enable the functionality for the non-MDC autocomplete too.
DEPRECATED:
AUTOCOMPLETE_OPTION_HEIGHT
is deprecated, because it isn't being used anymore.AUTOCOMPLETE_PANEL_HEIGHT
is deprecated, because it isn't being used anymore.Fixes #18030.
