Description
Steps to reproduce
Link to live example: (required)
https://github.com/zprobinson/muijoy-nested-formcontrol
Steps:
- Clone repository
npm installnpm run dev- Open to
localhost:5173and look at console
Current behavior
I am using an example in the Mui Joy documentation for the Input component and receiving an error in the console.
I am using this example.
The FormControl component apparently does not allow for nested controls as children. This is mutually exclusive with the documentation (and also my expectation) which demonstrates the ability to use decorators to create complex inputs such as an input/select combination for currency denomination.
Expected behavior
I expect to be able to copy examples from documentation and not receive errors at run time.
The example uses a Stack instead of a FormControl as the parent element. This is likely due to the error I have above. But this is kind of a tricky and unintentionally deceptive nuance. I expect to use complex form controls I design/compose inside of a form element. Inside of that form element, for all of my form controls I expect to use the FormControl component for consistency of spacing/layout/style.
I expect the form suite of components (including Form Control) to be able to support decorated children/input which allow me to capture more complex form entry needs.
Context
I have a quantity and a quantity unit of measure field in the form of my application.
Instead of 2 separate fields, the documentation implies a great solution of a combined input/select. This keeps the user experience great because the two pieces of data are tightly correlated, they should be filled out/displayed in the same location.

Research direction
Start with the linked reproduction and the Joy UI Input decorators example in the documentation; reproduce the console error with the nested FormControl and Select composition. Compare the documented Stack-based example with the FormControl usage, then define the supported composition so the example runs without a console error.
