While playing with the stackblitz I did find a workaround... Make a call to pDropdown?.overlayViewChild?.alignOverlay()
on a timeout right after setting the filter. That seems to do the half of the trick, but there are still issues.
The main issue with the workaround is that although the overlay now repositions after setting the filter, it still doesn't reposition back after clearing the filter (pressing any non-alpha key like Shift
or Backspace
)
See update on the stackblitz reproducer
I still believe this should be done internally at the PrimeNG component, not by workarounds of the component consumers.
Describe the bug
I have a dropdown with these specific characteristics:
Environment
Our internal application has a page with multiple instances of these dropdowns.
The layout of the page is data driven so we have multiple layouts where at times there are only a few dropdowns and most time we have a more significant amount of these. The page where these dropdowns are used has other information the users need on the screen so it is important for users to see the options close to the specific dropdown they are working with. Our users for the most prefer to work with the keyboard.
