ng-template inside MatAutocomplete doesn't work
See original GitHub issueReproduction
https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-wwwm2h
Steps to reproduce:
- Click on the input field
Expected Behavior
Autocomplete list is rendered on input click
Actual Behavior
Nothing is rendered
If you uncomment extra mat-option then list appears. I think ii’s connected with the fact that autocomplete is unable to determine the number of options if they’re coming from ng-template
Environment
- Angular: 8.2.14
- CDK/Material: 8.2.3
- Browser(s): any
- Operating System (e.g. Windows, macOS, Ubuntu): any

ok, I see. Thanks for explanation
It’s definitely a framework limitation, but I’m not sure that it’s a bug since this is the way it has always worked.
