When using the Multiselect with Javascript Api in following order:

- Disable

- Select

- Enable

The Multiselect Control is enabled, but the Items are still disabled and therefore cannot be removed by the X.

Can be reproduced in the official demo (see Screenshot): https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/api

Hello ladies and gentlemen.

Readonly mode does not work correctly in Bootstrap 4 Theme.

If the MultiSelect is put into readonly mode programmatically and has a value and clearButton option is true - clear button is displayed and the value can be cleared.

• Bug report

Current behavior

When the MultiSelect is wrapped in a container with class .k-edit-field or .k-edit-buttons (e.g in a Grid popup editor) and the selected tags are hovered, their background-color becomes transparent.

The issue is partly related to #701.

Expected behavior

The MultiSelect tags should not have transparent background when hovered.

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

The issue can be reproduced with the following Dojo example:

• Hover over one of the selected tags to see the background-color issue.

Environment

Product:

• Kendo Ui for jQuery

Hi,

We are using the Kendo Multi Select widget, and it was just reported that you can't remove a tag from the list when clicking on the Close (X) icon when using Safari on iPadOS 13.1.3. I was also able to reproduce this on the multiselect demo here - https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/index. We are currently on version 2019.2.619, however I also tried it on the latest with the demo and it also didn't seem to work.

Is this a known defect? 

Thanks,

Emily

Bug report

When an empty array is passed to the MultiSelect's value method inside the deselect event, the item that is deselected remains selected in the MultiSelect.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this Dojo and run it
2. Expand MultiSelect's popup list and click on "All" item.

Current behavior

The different MultiSelect items are deselected except for the "All" item.

*If the "if" statement is removed from the deselect event function in the Dojo, and only the 'e.sender.value([]);' is kept, the issue is reproducing no matter of the selected item in MultiSelect's popup.

Expected/desired behavior

Calling 'e.sender.value([]);' should remove all items selected in the MultiSelect.
Click on the "Clear values" button to see the expected behavior.

Environment

Hello dear support,

I ve a strange behavior that I may qualify as bug.

I ve tried to reproduce here https://dojo.telerik.com/osEPIvOG wit a result shown in this animated gif here attached (DPSN-13445).

Basically what's happening is that if your are selecting / clearing elements that looked to be in different pages (view), the dataItems() function does not return the correct value, but some previous item.

This "bug" is always reproducible;

Please let me know if there is a bad implementation (I m using here basic Telerik sample) or if there is a workaround, or if I can expect a fix;

By advance thx for your swift reply.

Bug report

Reproduction of the problem

Dojo example.

1. Type in "f" in the MultiSelect's input area. It is filtered and shows 2 items in the list.
2. Press "Ctrl + A" keys. The two items are selected.
3. Clear the text in the input. The list is populated with all items in the dataSource.
4. Press "Ctrl + A" keys again

Current behavior

All items are selected, but the first two ("Chai and Chang") are not highlighted as selected.

Expected/desired behavior

All items should be selected and highlighted as selected.

Environment

• **Kendo UI version: 2020.3.1118

Bug report

When there are items selected in the MultiSelect and the close icon is clicked the popup is opened for a moment

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Demo - https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/index
2. Click the close icon in the first MultiSelect

Current behavior

The popup is opened for a moment

Expected/desired behavior

The popup should not get opened unexpectedly.

The issue is a regression introduced in 2022.1.412 version with the following commit - telerik/kendo@7953a90

Environment

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

Bug report

Currently, the MultiSelect input does not have a placeholder attribute in its rendering. This leads to inconsistency with the other input components such as AutoComplete and ComboBox.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo example and inspect the rendering of the two components.

Current behavior

Currently, the MultiSelect 'input.k-input-inner' element does not have a placeholder attribute. As a consequence, the color of the placeholder is slightly different than the rest of the input widgets.

Expected/desired behavior

The MultiSelect widgets should have a placeholder attribute in order to be consistent with the rest of the widgets such as AutoComplete and ComboBox

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2022.2.510
• Browser: [all]

Bug report

If you filter the MultiSelect and then blur it, a read request occurs that retrieves all the data. Then, if you open the MultiSelect, another read request triggers with the same data as response

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Server Filtering Demo - https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/serverfiltering
2. Open the DevTools network tab and type some text to filter the data, e.g. "Cha"
3. Select an item from the filtered data and blur the input - a read request occurs that returns the entire data.
4. Open the MultiSelect again - the same read request with the same data occurs.

Current behavior

Duplicated read request occurs when you blur and reopen the MultiSelect

Expected/desired behavior

No duplicated read requests should occur.

Bug report

MultiSelect e.preventDefault() does not work in change event when selecting/deselecting items with Ctrl+A or Chift+Arrow

Reproduction of the problem

• Run the following Dojo: https://dojo.telerik.com/unEhoVAS/3
• Click in the MS input
• Press CTRL+A - all items will be selected

Expected/desired behavior

No items should be selected as e.preventDefault() is called in the select event.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2021.1.330
• Browser: [all ]

• Open the MultiSelect and add some items
• Use backspace to remove items

Result: The items that were selected, then un-selected still show as selected in the list

This can be reproduced on the latest demo page. https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/index 

The bug I was talking was when setting tagMode of kendoMultiSelect to single, clicking the clear button (x at right of textbox) doesn’t trigger “deselect” event. Not sure if it’s by design. They fixed a similar bug regarding “change” event - https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-core/issues/4649.

Repro snippet could be found at

Bug report

The "aria-setsize" attribute is missing when initializing a MultiSelect with default selected values in AngularJS

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open this Dojo and run it
2. Right-click on one of the initially selected items in the MultiSelect.
3. The selected DOM element will be a "li" tag
4. Select a new item in the MultiSelect and watch how the definition of the "li" tag will change
5. When selecting a third element in the MultiSelect. All the three "li" tags will receive an aria-setsize="3" tag, which wasn't presented for the default selected values

Current behavior

When initializing a MultiSelect with default values, the aria-setsize attribute is missing for these values.

Expected/desired behavior

The default MultiSelect values should have an aria-setsize attribute added to their selected values

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2019.2.619

Hi,

since the update to R3 2019 we have a issue with the multiselect component.

Whenever I set it to readonly:

$("#multiselect").data("kendoMultiSelect").readonly(true)

It is not possible to make it writable again with

$("#multiselect").data("kendoMultiSelect").readonly(false)

It stays readonly. What can I do?

Hello!

Firstly, in the keyboard navigation demo for the MultiSelect widget (https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/multiselect/keyboard-navigation) the follwing two keyboard shortcuts are documented:

• SHIFT + UP-ARROW: select previous item
• SHIFT + DOWN-ARROW: select next item

In the following scenario, these shortcuts cause some strange behaviour:

• select two consecutive items with SHIFT+DOWN-ARROW (e.g. "Small" and "Medium")
• use the arrow keys to move the focus further down (e.g. to "X-Large")
• press SHIFT+DOWN-ARROW again

I would expect "X-Large" and "2X-Large" to be selected in addition to the already selected items "Small" and "Medium". Instead, "Large" is selected as well. Is this behaviour intended?

Secondly, every time the user clicks and selects an entry of the MultiSelect popup, the popup is closed. Is there a way to prevent that closing. Or is there a way of selecting without triggering a close event (like pressing CTRL etc.)?

Thank You!

Bug report

Regression since R1 2018 SP1.

Reproduction of the problem

Dojo example.

1. Focus the MultiSelect

Current behavior

The value set in the dataBound event handler is replaced by the value set initially in the widget's options.

Expected/desired behavior

The widget should keep the value set after initialization (["AROUT", "BERGS"]) when focused.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2019.3.917
• jQuery version: x.y
• Browser: [all]

Hi Kendo support team,

I found a bug (or at least an undesired behavior) in the Kendo Multiselect widget.

After initialization the options in the existing select seem to be rebuilt receiving the content as value attribute if it did not exist before.
During this process potentially existing double spaces are replaced with single spaces (see attached image).

If the options of that select are replaced later, they will keep double spaces.

We use the selected values to receive content from the database, which in these cases is not possible anymore.
Since the content of the database is created by our client, we can't guarantee there might not be any double spaces.

In general I think that the content of the existing options should not be modified in any way.

Thanks,
Markus

See the following dojo to reproduce the behavior: https://dojo.telerik.com/oGEcaDoN
