[material-ui] Textfield add autoSelect prop about material-ui HOT 3 OPEN

I'm also open to work arounds if there are any. I tried a handful of things with no success.

from material-ui.

@TonyBrobston, I didn't understand your issue. Can you provide reproduction steps using an example from the Autocomplete docs or a live example on CodeSandbox or StackBlitz? What is the "current behavior" vs. the "expected behavior"?

The Autocomplete component already has an autoSelect prop. Check it out in this playground: https://mui.com/material-ui/react-autocomplete/#playground.

API docs: https://mui.com/material-ui/api/autocomplete/#autocomplete-prop-autoSelect.

Does that work for you?

Hey @ZeeshanTamboli

Here is a super rough example: https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/icy-violet-j2nf2f?file=%2Fsrc%2FDemo.tsx%3A36%2C19

When you click "Edit" for the Date, when the DatePicker is rendered, the value in the field is focused and selected. When you click "Edit" for the TextField, when the TextField is rendered, the TextField is focused, but the value is not selected.

The desire is to have the TextField have an option to function the same way, to also select the text as the user is going to overwrite the value.

Does this help?
