Material UI Autocomplete dropdown positioning

Viewed 5244

Is there any easy way to customize Material UI Autocomplete so it Popper dropdown can be positioned relative to the text cursor (Similar to the VS Code Intellisense dropdown)? I have a multiline Textfield component as an input field.

Code looks something like this:

import React from "react";
import { createStyles, makeStyles, Theme } from '@material-ui/core/styles';
import TextField from "@material-ui/core/TextField";
import Autocomplete from "@material-ui/lab/Autocomplete";
import Chip from '@material-ui/core/Chip';
import { Popper } from "@material-ui/core";



const targetingOptions = [
  { label: "(", type: "operator" },
  { label: ")", type: "operator" },
  { label: "OR", type: "operator" },
  { label: "AND", type: "operator" },
  { label: "Test Option 1", type: "option" },
  { label: "Test Option 2", type: "option" },
];


const useStyles = makeStyles((theme: Theme) =>
  createStyles({
    root: {
      '& .MuiAutocomplete-inputRoot': {
        alignItems: 'start'
      }
    },
  }),
);




export default () => {
  const classes = useStyles();

  const CustomPopper = function (props) {
    return <Popper {...props} style={{ width: 250, position: 'relative' }} />;
  };
  

  return (
    <div>
        <Autocomplete
        className={classes.root}
        multiple
        id="tags-filled"
        options={targetingOptions.map((option) => option.label)}
        freeSolo
        disableClearable
        PopperComponent={CustomPopper}
        renderTags={(value: string[], getTagProps) =>
          value.map((option: string, index: number) => (
            <Chip variant="outlined" label={option} {...getTagProps({ index })} />
          ))
        }
        renderInput={(params) => (
          <TextField {...params} variant="outlined" multiline={true} rows={20} />
        )}
      />
    </div>
  );
};
