A way to stop jqxComboBox from selecting item when exact string is searched

[osama.a.rehmanParticipant]

Hello,

I’ve a jqxCombobox with remote source and “multiselect” property set to true. In this combobox, I’m selecting the item whenever the onSelect/onChange is called, and then clear the selection as well as the input as I’m keeping the already (multiple) selected items somewhere else. Problem is when I search for exact string e.g. “ABC” and the retrieved results have the exact same string i.e. “ABC” onSelect is automatically called which causes the selection of the “ABC” without user explicitly clicking on it.

I want to ask two things:
1) Is this a feature of jqxCombobox ?
2) Is there a way to stop this from happening ?

Thanks

Hello osama.a.rehman,

Could you clarify it?
I tested this example and it seems to work fine.
Note: The example is not handled on the Server-Side.
It is only for demonstration purposes.
