Drop-down items arranged in multiple columns

[Ricky]

Thanks to the templating is easy to have a template for the drop-down items. The sample demonstrates the power quite well: http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/dropdownlist/template

But if I want the user to select one of 100 icons and display each icon with a size of 32x32 the list gets quite long while very thin. Can I arrange this in (let's say) 6 columns so the width is 192px and I only get 17 rows of icons. That would be much more compact.

To make it more clear, two pictures: Instead of icon-drop-straight I would like icon-drop-columns as a dropdown.

Hi Ricky,

The desired layout is not supported out-of-the box, but you can use some custom styling along with the template option to achieve the desired behavior, e.g.:

I hope this helps.
