title: Angular material autocomplete search anywhere in string?

  <p>Please can someone tell me how to  make autocomplete (Angular material) to search string not only at the beginning of words, but anywhere within the words.</p>
  
  <p>For example the word Alabama:
  Works when you type "Ala", but does not work when you type "bama".
  How do I make it to work when I type "bama"?</p>
  
  <p>I know I can use a third party directive such as Angucomplete Alt:
  <a href="http://ghiden.github.io/angucomplete-alt/" rel="noreferrer">http://ghiden.github.io/angucomplete-alt/</a>
  but I think Angular material should have this option?</p>
