Cannot set autocomplete height

See original GitHub issue

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

Hey guys I’m really enjoying your awesome design platform. It’s really unmatched!

The only issue I have now is that I cannot set the height of the auto-complete panel. I tried the following css but still no luck: .mat-autocomplete-panel { max-height: 450px !important; } Can you please help?

What is the expected behavior?

What is the current behavior?

What are the steps to reproduce?

Providing a Plunker (or similar) is the best way to get the team to see your issue. Plunker template: https://goo.gl/DlHd6U

What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, browsers are affected?

Is there anything else we should know?

Shouldn’t it be possible to set the height/number of items shown without CSS skullduggery?

@geelus You need to add encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None in your component

if you inspect your html then you will find that class you added becomes

.mat-autocomplete-panel[_ngcontent-c0]{ max-height:700px!important; }

that’s why its not effective.

First you need to include dependency

import {ViewEncapsulation} from '@angular/core';

then update your component like this

@Component({ ..... encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None })

here is the plnkr example https://plnkr.co/edit/bNOxBM5x7zvIEr7hzqFQ?p=preview
