Hey there, I'm a newcomer to the world of development. Currently, I am working on a project that involves a button within a flex container setup. Here is the code snippet for the button:
<div class="flex-item flex-item-button" >
<i class="fa fa-plus-circle big-icon"></i>
</div>
Next to this button, there is an input field with typeahead functionality. When a user selects an option from the typeahead, the selected value appears below the input field, causing the container to resize. This leads to the button dropping down instead of staying aligned with the input field. To resolve this issue, I attempted using position: relative;
, but it did not work as expected.
Here is the visual representation of the layout before and after selection:

To provide more context, each sibling element (button, input field, etc.) is structured as a flex item within a parent wrapper with the class name "flex-container-wrap". As requested earlier, here is some additional code pertaining to the layout:
<div class="flex-container wrap">
<div class="flex-item">
<select name="customerDropdown" data-ng-model="customer.selected"></select>
</div>
<div class="flex-item">
<input id="vin-input" ng-change="onChange()">
</div>
<div class="flex-item ">
<auto-complete><auto-complete>
</div>
<div>
<auto-complete i><auto-complete>
</div>
.....(remaining code)
</div>
