This is the maximum simplified code sample: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-8r153h-wcvefg?file=app/autocomplete-sample.ts
the problem is that: selected item is not highlighted in the list, when I manually set formControl value:
this.formControl.setValue("second");
but if I click on this item, then the item is highlighted:
I see that highlight is when the option has mat-selected class.
Maybe have somebody any ideas on how to highlight that item after setValue?
