Get the DOM of a component with tagName=""

[sourvb]

Hi,
I am setting tagName="" in my component. I cannot use any tagName, or else it will break the my page style. I want to access the DOM of that component. Using this.$() throws an error saying object not available for tagName=="". Is there any solution for this?

@sourvb looks like #12500 will add the support your looking for, thanks @miguelcobain

@pixelhandler you can see in that issue that @wycats had some problems with adding that feature.
Maybe we can have this functionality in an addon? /cc @runspired

Thanks @pixelhandler and @miguelcobain. Is there any alternative solution for this?

@sourvb personally I do not use tagName="" I would use a tag so I could access the DOM if needed. Which as you've mentioned requires fixing some style issues. I also avoid style libraries that prohibit how I can build HTML in my apps. But I get that is not always the case, is there a way you can use a tagName and fix the style issue some how?

@sourvb see this comment, #4790 (comment) Which does answer your question…

Is there any solution for this?

Closing this for now.
