Extending matChipInput directive to be usable with matSelect #16732

Open aaronhauth opened 5 years ago

aaronhauth commented 5 years ago

Feature Description

Similar to how a mat-select with the multiple attribute may display a list of the selected values in the input field, I would like to be able to do a similar thing with chips. Currently, one may use the matChipInput directive on an input element which binds inputted values to new chips in the chip list. Extending that to mat-select would be helpful for my needs.

Use Case

A user may want to create a multiple selection dropdown list and see the options they have selected in the dropdown, but also have the power to clear selections without accessing them from within the dropdown list. This can be especially helpful when I want to limit the number of selections a user may want to make in a dropdown list and a user may more easily manage the selections for a field without entering the dropdown as much.

Thank you for submitting your feature request! Looks like during the polling process it didn't collect a sufficient number of votes to move to the next stage.

We want to keep Angular rich and ergonomic and at the same time be mindful about its scope and learning journey. If you think your request could live outside Angular's scope, we'd encourage you to collaborate with the community on publishing it as an open source package.
