Disable float for mdInput text field

In an Angular 4 (Material) app, I have a text field for search. When I type in the field, a second field appears showing the entered text. This new field floats as I scroll the page. How do I disable the floating behavior?



It doesn't seem to be default behavior for a text field. I've tried md-no-float, but that's for the placeholder text I understand. Someone suggested setting an empty value, so I added that, but the problem remains.



<md-input-container md-no-float style="width: 100%">
<input mdInput formControlName="search" value="" placeholder="Search Terms" />
</md-input-container>

  • @Vega I'm not sure I follow. There isn't any interpolation right there. The search input is actually displayed/enabled by a radio button and the next closest tag is the results in an ngFor div.

  • I used your code and tried to simulate what you said but it looks fine. Are you talking about "Search terms" literal floating above the input field after you have entered something ?

  • @AakashUniyal, no it's the text I enter into the field--not the placeholder text. I'm just as confused. It's not standard behavior, so I'm trying to figure out what's causing it.

    As per version 6.4.5 of @angular/material2 you can control floating labels using floatLabel input property as you can see in their floating label documentation.



    <mat-form-field [floatLabel]="'never'">

      It turns out it's the Chrome autocomplete popping up.



      If you add autocomplete="off" to both the form and the input field, it will go away.
