p-columnFilter: On selection of options in the filter dropdown, the filter menu is inconsistently closing

[aditi1425]

Describe the bug

The p-columnFilter module in PrimeNG exhibits an inconsistent issue where the filter dropdown randomly closes upon the selection of options. This behavior occurs sporadically, making it challenging to reproduce consistently. The problem seems to be related to the selection of options within the filter dropdown making the user unable select multiple filter option in a single instance.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

• Apply a filter to a column that triggers the filter dropdown to appear.
• Attempt to select an option from the dropdown.
• Observe that, at times, the dropdown closes unexpectedly after selecting an option(generally on second selection)

Expected behavior

The filter dropdown should remain open after selecting an option until the user explicitly closes it or clicks outside the dropdown area.

On v17.1.0 on dropdown select it closes column filter instantly is there possibility to change this behaviour.

We can use the overlayVisible property of column filter in order to handle the visibility.

Hi,

So sorry for the delayed response! Improvements have been made to many components recently, both in terms of performance and enhancement. Therefore, this improvement may have been developed in another issue ticket without realizing it. You can check this in the documentation. If there is no improvement on this, can you open a new issue so we can include it in our roadmap?

Thanks a lot for your understanding!
Best Regards,
