Historically mat-select and mat-autocomplete have behaved very similarly, because they were written around the same time and they share some logic by depending on mat-option. mat-select has to know all the option heights ahead of time so that it can position its panel correctly over the trigger. The limitation made its way into mat-autocomplete, even though there's no reason for it to be there.

While implementing the MDC-based autocomplete, I refactored some code that makes it easier to support variable-height options so these changes enable the functionality for the non-MDC autocomplete too.

DEPRECATED:

  • AUTOCOMPLETE_OPTION_HEIGHT is deprecated, because it isn't being used anymore.
  • AUTOCOMPLETE_PANEL_HEIGHT is deprecated, because it isn't being used anymore.

Fixes #18030.

Can you add a DEPRECATED block to your commit message?

Historically `mat-select` and `mat-autocomplete` have behaved very similarly, because they were written around the same time and they share some logic by depending on `mat-option`. `mat-select` has to know all the option heights ahead of time so that it can position its panel correctly over the trigger. The limitation made its way into `mat-autocomplete`, even though there's no reason for it to be there.

While implementing the MDC-based autocomplete, I refactored some code that makes it easier to support variable-height options so there changes enable the functionality for the non-MDC autocomplete too.

DEPRECATED:
* `AUTOCOMPLETE_OPTION_HEIGHT` is deprecated, because it isn't being used anymore.
* `AUTOCOMPLETE_PANEL_HEIGHT` is deprecated, because it isn't being used anymore.

Fixes angular#18030.
