Overview

The TagBox allows users to select multiple items from a drop-down list. This demo illustrates the following TagBox properties:

items
An array of items displayed by the TagBox.
searchEnabled
Specifies whether the search is enabled.
showSelectionControls
Defines whether to display the selection controls.
applyValueMode
Specifies whether selected values are applied instantly or when a user clicks the OK button.
hideSelectedItems
Specifies whether the selected items are removed from the drop-down list.
multiline
Displays selected items on single or multiple lines.
acceptCustomValue
Specifies whether users can enter custom values. Requires that you also implement the onCustomItemCreating handler.
placeholder
Customizes the TagBox placeholder.
value
Specifies items the TagBox currently displays.
disabled
Defines whether the component responds to user interaction.
dataSource
Binds the TagBox to data. Unlike the items property, dataSource accepts the DataSource object that allows users to sort, filter, group, and shape data. Note that you cannot use items and dataSource simultaneously.
itemTemplate
Allows you to customize the drop-down list items.
