I am using a kendo multi-select of version(2015.1.521). It is located in the lower side of the page. Widow size is increasing after selecting items. After removing some item from option using x icon, multi-select does not open. Is there any solution?

What do you mean by 'it doesn't open' ? – Sangram Nandkhile
It starts flashing, I mean it opens and get closed quickly. You can see in the dojo. – Arshad
Sorry, I've tried this multiple times but it seems to be working fine at my end. No sudden flash or closing of window noticed. Which browser are you using? – Sangram Nandkhile
Use chrome in incognito – Arshad

I have got a workaround where I am checking for active element. Solution dojo

 $("#required").kendoMultiSelect({
    autoClose:false,
    close: function (e) {
        var activeElement = document.activeElement.getAttribute('aria-owns');
        var currentId = this.tagList[0].id;
        if (activeElement != undefined && activeElement != null && activeElement.includes(currentId)) {
            e.preventDefault();
        }
    }
  });

I was able to reproduce your problem. On the other hand, I wasn't able to reproduce it with a current version. That tells me, that it must have been a bug which has been fixed in the meantime.

The only way I found out which fixes the problem for me at 2015.1.521 is to refresh the Widget, once the problem occurred.

$("#required").data("kendoMultiSelect").refresh();

Now the question is, how do you know (programmatically) that you are in that error-state? Maybe you could refresh it on a regular basis. Until you upgrade to a newer version, it's going to be a workaround.
