DropDown list get closed when attempt to scroll at first time

[Christian]

I am having an issue when working with DropDownList components. After binding the component if a vertical scrollball is needed (too many records at once), if you scroll down in attempt to select a value, the combo box get closed. At second attempt the combo works fine and you can scroll down with any problem. 
Our project is running with kendo.web.js version “v2013.2.918”, due to internal project policies we are not allow to change neither .js version nor kendo.mvc dll. 
Is there any workaround to this issue for this version?

<div class="controlBlock">            <label>*@Html.RawLocalized(WorkspaceMessageKeys.WorkspaceType).ToString()</label>
            @(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(m => m.WorkSpaceTypeId)
                    .Name("WorkSpaceTypeId")
                    .HtmlAttributes(new { @class = "check" })
                    .DataTextField("WorkSpaceTypeDesc")
                    .DataValueField("WorkSpaceTypeId")
                    .OptionLabel(Html.RawLocalized(WorkspaceMessageKeys.Select).ToString())
                    .DataSource(source =>
                    {
                        source.Read(read =>
                        {
                            read.Action("FindWorkSpaceTypes", "WorkSpace")
                                .Type(HttpVerbs.Post);
                        })
                        .ServerFiltering(true);
                    })
                )
            <div>
                @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.WorkSpaceTypeId)
            </div>
</div>

Thanks in advance.

Hello Christian,

The best solution is to upgrade to the latest official release, because it is tested and the issue is fixed. In general, our policy excludes providing patches for older versions as there are no guarantees that the patch will fix the problem and there will be no side effects.
That being said, I would strongly suggest you upgrade to the latest official release of Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC (2014.3.1119).
