PnP People Picker can't find Guest Users

Hello - I'm using peoplepicker @pnp/spfx-controls-react/lib/PeoplePicker. We have fairly large number of Guest Type users. And I thought peoplepicker would find these users as well. But that isn't the case. Is there any setting which will allow peoplepicker to find Guest type users ? 

 

Thank you for your time !

    This post is two months old, but I came across it while researching something tangentially related and could readily answer it because of that research.jnr-O365:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-online/set-spotenant?view=sharepoint-ps -ShowPeoplePickerSuggestionsForGuestUsers $true

    or

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-pnp/set-pnptenant?view=sharepoint-ps -ShowPeoplePickerSuggestionsForGuestUsers $true

    The description of the "ShowPeoplePickerSuggestionsForGuestUsers" command switch for the Set-SPOTenant version describes its function as: To enable the option to search for existing guest users at Tenant Level, set this parameter to $true.
