In this case, a select dropdown is opened inside an overlay (separate container moved at the end bo the document body), and every click detected in the select menu will be handled like a document click by dropdown. We will check if we can somehow fix that on our end, but it can be difficult as there are many different use cases similar to the one you use.
You can use stopPropagation
method on select options in order to resolve this problem on our end:
<mdb-option (click)="$event.stopPropagation()">Option 1</mdb-option>
<mdb-option (click)="$event.stopPropagation()">Option 2</mdb-option>
<mdb-option (click)="$event.stopPropagation()">Option 3</mdb-option>
