The animation played when the suggestion popup is closed. Configures the closing animation effects, duration, and other animation-related settings. By default, the popup closes with a simple fade-out effect. You can customize this behavior by specifying different effects and duration values.

<input id="multicolumncombobox" />
<script>
$("#multicolumncombobox").kendoMultiColumnComboBox({
  animation: {
   close: {
     effects: "zoom:out",
     duration: 300
   }
  },
  dataTextField: "text",
  dataValueField: "value",
  dataSource: [
      { text: "Apples", value: "1" },
      { text: "Oranges", value: "2" }
  ],
  columns: [
      { field: "text", title: "Text" },
      { field: "value", title: "Value" }
  ]
});
</script>
