Hi @kara , @negberts was right the select was inside a div where the z-index was set to 2001. So I tried overriding the select style like this

.md-overlay-container { z-index: 10000 !important; }

and it works fine now, maybe the z-index should be a parameter for cases like this.
Is there any documentation available for the select component?

Thanks for your help!
