Selection

Updated on Sep 8, 2026

The Rating allows you to control the selection of its items.

To configure the selection option, use either of the following settings:

  • continuous—Allows the selection of all items from the start to the end.
  • single—Allows the selection of a single item.

Continuous Selection

The continuous selection is the default selection mode of the Rating. If not configured, the Rating will automatically set the selection option to "continuous".

Example
View Source
   <input id="rating" name="rating">

    <script>
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $("#rating").kendoRating({
                selection: "continuous"
            });
        });
    </script>

Single Selection

To configure the single selection mode, set the selection option to "single".

Example
View Source
    <input id="rating" name="rating">

    <script>
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $("#rating").kendoRating({
                selection: "single"
            });
        });
    </script>
