Description

Hi all,

I am struggling with documentation finding a way how to close geocoders suggestion dropdown programatically while keeping whatever search term has been put in it?

Basically, doing the same thing as if you would enter any value into input field and then click somewhere else in the page.

thanks

Research direction

Start by reviewing the geocoder control's documented public API and the suggestion dropdown behavior described in the issue. Determine whether an existing public method supports closing the panel while preserving the input, and define completion as a documented or exposed way to trigger that behavior programmatically.
