    Using this example https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/dropdownlist/addnewitem and changing the kendoDropDownList to kendoMultiSelect, i receive the error below because the instance.filterInput is not defined on the widget instance. According to your docs these two property configurations are supported. How can I get the multiSelect to have a filter?

    ERROR

    Hello Jeremy,

    I replied in the support ticket you opened with the same subject. To summarize here as well, the MultiSelect and DropDownList have their own Add new item demos (MultiSelect demo, DropDownList demo), in which widget-specific logic and methods are used to achieve the same result, for example:
    ​In the MultiSelect demo:
    widget.value(widget.value().concat([newValue]));
    and in the DropDownList demo:
    widget.select(dataSource.view().length - 1);
    Thus instead of replacing the widgets in one demo we would suggest reviewing the widget-specific logic in each of the dropdown widgets' (DropDownList, MultiSelect, ComboBox, AutoComplete) Add new item demos.
