The multiSelect supports several keyboard shortcuts as documented in https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/keyboard-navigation. However, when e.g. a KeyDown event is triggered (and handled) by the widget, its propagation is not stopped. This behavior can be witnessed in this DOJO.

In our case, we e.g. use multiSelects inside dialog windows that can be closed via ESC. When pressing ESC while a multiSelect is focused and open, this not only closes the multiSelect (as expected), but also closes the dialog.

The multiSelect should stop the propagation of events that it handled.

Hi Kendo Team,

After updating to version 2022.1.301 we noticed that the multiselect fields would look broken in some situations.

If the text of a selected item is longer than the line, the text of the new 'chip' will break into a new line.
The chip itself though keeps its fixed height of 24px resulting in an unreadable entry. (see attached image).
This only seems to be an issue in less themes.

We managed to reproduce this behavior in a dojo: https://dojo.telerik.com/ERaQegEc

You can see that in the second field we managed to fix this by modifying the styles of k-chip:

.k-chip {
    line-height: 17px;
    min-height: 24px;
    height: auto;
}

Thanks,

Markus

Bug report

When MultiSelect is used inside Grid columns filter, it is closing immediately after clicked in the MultiSelect filter input.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Knowledge Base article - https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/knowledge-base/multiselect-used-for-column-filtering
2. Click on the 'Name' column filter icon to open the filter popup.
3. Click in the MultiSelect input filter.

Current behavior

The filter popup is closing first time when clicked. Next time when the filter popup is opened it is not rendered properly.

Expected/desired behavior

The filter popup should not be closed when clicking in the Multiselect filter input. The MultiSelect list items should be rendered below the filter input.

The issue is a regression introduced in 2022.1.301 with the following commit telerik/kendo@bb73744

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2022.2.512
• Browser: [all ]

The documentation for the Kendo UI MultiSelect widget states that the user can highlight the next/previous item using RIGHT/LEFT when the selection popup is closed. This works as expected. However, if the user then presses TAB and moves the focus somewhere else, the item remains highlighted.

Since the highlight only indicates that certain actions can be executed on the item, it should be removed in such a case as the actions are no longer executable. This can easily be reproduced with the keyboard navigation sample:

• Select a few items
• press LEFT
• press TAB

Bug report

An error occurs when filtering the MultiSelect with grouping enabled.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this Dojo example - https://dojo.telerik.com/IJErEZiD
2. Open the MultiSelect and scroll down a bit.
3. Type "w" so that the No Data Template would appear.

Current behavior

An error occurs on the browser console.

Expected/desired behavior

No errors should occur when filtering the component.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2022.3.913
• Browser: [all]

Bug report

When the value of the widget is set in the dataBound event handler the filtering events is fired and e.filter is undefined

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo
2. Open the browser console and type something in the MultiSelect to filter the data.

Current behavior

The filtering event is fired a second time and the second time the e.filter is undefined.

Expected/desired behavior

Double-checlk if the filtering event should be fired a second time.
The e.filter and e.sender.dataSource.filter().filters[0] should return the same value.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2022.3.1109
• Browser: [all ]

Bug report

If the MultiSelect open event is prevented, the animation container has display:block style, blocking inputs beneath the MultiSelect

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this example - https://dojo.telerik.com/EqOSOReM/38
2. Type something in the MultiSelect and blur, without selecting an item.
3. Focus the MultiSelect again
4. Try to focus the input beneath

Regression introduced with 2022.2.621

Workaround: manually hide the animation container - https://dojo.telerik.com/EqOSOReM/38

Current behavior

The k-animation-container has display:block style, preventing the input beneath it from being focused

Expected/desired behavior

The k-animation-container should have display:none style.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2023.1.117

Bug report

In MultiSelect when the value is set initially and the mapValueTo option is set to 'dataItem', if the user first open and close the popup, the last item can not be removed and an error 'c.select(...).done is not a function' is thrown.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo example. - https://dojo.telerik.com/@NeliKondova/UCesAQen
2. Open the popup and scroll to the "Hungry Owl All-Night Grocers" item
3. Close the popup
4. Try to remove the "Hungry Owl All-Night Grocers" from the input

As the Dojo above does not use a remote valueMapper below is a sample project where a remote valueMapper method is implemented
WebApplication3.zip

Current behavior

The last item can not be removed and an error 'c.select(...).done is not a function' is thrown in the browser`s console.
The other items except the last one can be removed as expected. Also, all items can be removed initially in case the popup has not been opened and scrolled to the last item from the value.

Expected/desired behavior

It should be possible to remove all items displayed in the MultiSelect input, even in a scenario where the popup has been opened and closed.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2023.2.606

Bug report

Setting the delay option of the MultiSelect doesn't have an effect.

Regression introduced with 2024.1.130

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this Dojo example - https://dojo.telerik.com/oyaHULOv/4
2. Type some text to filter the data

Current behavior

The 1 second delay is not respected and the data is filtered instantly

Expected/desired behavior

There should be 1 second delay before the data is filtered

Environment

• Browser: [all]

Bug report

When the MultiSelect is created from a predefined HTML, the dataTextField and dataValueField options default to "text" and "value" instead of empty string.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this Dojo example - https://dojo.telerik.com/inUYekiL/10
2. Check the MultiSelect options in the browser console.

Current behavior

The dataTextField and dataValueField options default to text and value

Expected/desired behavior

The dataTextField and dataValueField's default values should be empty strings
