Prevent MutliSelect popup from scrolling on open

Provide an option to focus programmatically a multiselect item, in order to prevent the popup list from scrolling when the last item is selected.

Here is an example:

Hi Rafe,

What I can suggest as a workaround to stop the scrolling behavior when the popup opens and also focus the first item if that is needed.

Example - https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-n2cq9m-amkwneru?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts

If the feature request gathers a few more votes, our team will reopen the thread for further tracking. 

I hope the provided workaround is helpful. 

Regards,

I think this is the same request I was about to add. When the list is long enough to scroll, and (for example) when all of the items are selected, then the popup opens, the list scrolls to the end. I'd like an option to either disable scrolling on open, or allow a custom selector function you can pass to the options to tell it where to scroll to.

See my issue on github here: https://github.com/telerik/kendo-angular/issues/4161

And the example here: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-n2cq9m?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts

Hi Martin,

We are declining this request due to low interest and demand. If it turns out to be popular in the future, we will reconsider the status.
