ControlContainer.formDirective issues

[atomic pagoda]

Hello, have created nested FormGroup with one FormGroup inside as well and child FormGroup have custom form control where i wanna programically submit the root FormGroup.
Isuue: i inject ControlContainer into my custom form control component and trying find something in this instance with ngSubmit to submit the root form. I have console logged the instance and checked what i have in browser and found that controlContainer.formDirective in browser have type FormGroupDirective but in ng documentation and in VSC its type is Form. I found a typing bug and i can just cast this property to FormGroupDirective and sleep well or problem not here mostprobably? Any ideas?

In your situation the type might always be that, but in other situations that might not be the case. Other types might implement the Form interface

Why would you need to call ngSubmit()? Just add a button of type submit (but that's the default type anyway), and clicking it will submit the form. That's simply how HTML works.
