[DropDownMenu] Allow menus to scroll

[bblumberg]

Google has a nice example of what they call a drop down textfield. Any plans to implement this? I tried to implement something similar, but its tough because you need to insert the scrolling in an inconvenient place given the mui framework (and probably hide the paper associated with menus)

any update on this?

Any update on this? If I have a drop down menu with a lot of items in a Dialog component, things are not displayed properly.

Why did you close this? What we are discussing is different from the issue that you linked to. In the other issue he is saying that items flow out of the menu. I'm saying that if the menu is inside a dialog, items do NOT get displayed at all when the list is large. And, the guy from issue #1065 is saying that even outside of a Dialog component, he is having issues. The list is getting truncated and/or a full screen scroll is being required. Dropdown menus should have some scrolling capability, otherwise they are not usable in a modern layout. Please re-open this item because it is not related to the other one. They are different use cases.

My bad @RobTheBuilder2. Thanks for noticing and re-opening @oliviertassinari

I'm unable to use SelectField as well because of it. Is there a quick fix that we can apply now until there is a real solution ?
