Selecting kendoComboBox text

[Daniel]

Hi, 

I would like to programatically select the text of a combobox, so the user can write and get suggestions without having to delete the content of the combobox manually. Is there a way to do this? 

Thank you very much :)

I found the solution by myself, the following can be achieved by: 

$("#objectifs").data("kendoComboBox").input.select();
$("#objectifs").data("kendoComboBox").input.val("");
