Problem
Fixes #1844 - Autocomplete component was not displaying dropdown suggestions when used with Google Places API or similar external services. Users typing partial matches like "mainstreet 7" would not see relevant suggestions like "7 Mainstreet, Hopkins, MN, USA" because there was no exact match between the typed value and source array values.
Root Cause
suggestionMatch
defaulted to'start'
, requiring exact matches from the beginning of stringsshowAllSuggestions
was set tofalse
when there was a query, hiding potential matchesSolution
Changes Made
handleQueryChange
method: Now shows suggestions while typing whenshowSuggestionsWhenValueIsSet
is explicitly set totrue
matches
method: Added case-insensitive search forsuggestionMatch="anywhere"
andsuggestionMatch="word"
