Reproduction

would like to implement row with form fields and button with same height.

Steps to reproduce:

1. https://angular-ivy-qdy6pn.stackblitz.io
2. Pure angular stack ( no custom styles) angular , material , flex

Expected Behavior

What behavior were you expecting to see? it requires to write lot of custom styles for each variant and button. ( not maintainable) one custom style should work across all variants of form fields and should handle height of buttons and fom-field.

Actual Behavior

What behavior did you actually see?

.mat-form-field-appearance-legacy .mat-form-field-wrapper { padding-bottom: 1.25em; }

.mat-form-field-appearance-standard .mat-form-field-flex { padding-top: .75em; }

.mat-form-field-appearance-fill .mat-form-field-flex { border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0; padding: .75em .75em 0 .75em; }

.mat-form-field-appearance-outline .mat-form-field-infix { padding: 0.75em 0 0.75em 0 !important; }

.mat-form-field-appearance-legacy .mat-form-field-infix { padding-top: 0.75em !important; }

I believe that the current form field is set up to have a consistent baseline relative to other form fields, but not necessarily buttons and other Material components. Hopefully this will be better with the MDC-based versions.

When testing with the MDC based form field and button components, the heights are still different

Any updates on this?

[Snawe]

How can this not be a thing?

[adurmus]

Still nothing? So button is not considered as form field?
