Description

Hi ,

I need the details of of how to capture event when we type something in geocoder and doesn't select any results from the autocomplete ?

I referred the below link and added the marker after selecting the result using geocoder.on('result', function(ev) {} ). This will get the control only if we select results from autocomplete. How to capture the event where user types something in the geocoder and doesn't select any results form autocomplete. I need this to clear previously selected address from my component state.

Thanks

Research direction

Start with the linked point-from-geocoder-result example and the geocoder.on('result', function(ev) {}) entry point mentioned in the issue. Determine whether the control exposes an event for typed input without a selected autocomplete result; done means the relevant event or supported behavior is documented and can clear the previously selected address state.
