Multiselect options with filtration in kendo drop downlist

[Anand]

HI, I want to have a kendo drop down list with multiselect and filtration options into it. I don't want to use kendo multiselect widget. 

I need to have only kendo dropdownlist with multiselect and filter option so that i can select the options from the drop down and display into my custom div container.

 

Kindly suggest any option for this. please refer the screen shot.

Hello Anand,

The DropDownList displays a list of values and allows for a single selection from the list and as such does not provide a configuration option that would allow you to achieve the desired result.

May I ask why using the MultiSelect is not an option? You can use the approach demonstrated in this knowledgebase article and extend it by configuring the MultiSelect filter option to allow for the filtering of the data. You can also set the tagMode option to single if you do not want all selected tags displayed in the input filed of the widget. Here is an example, for you to review and customize further if required.
