I have a kendo multiselect on a page and I want to disable it based on a certain criteria. Is it posible to do that ? If not, could you please tell me a workaround for it ?

Thank you

var multiselect = $("#multiselect").data("kendoMultiSelect");
multiselect.enable(false);

But... This will this not _enable_ the drop down? OP wants to _disable_? – Sandman Jul 03 '17 at 07:47
@Sandman Just noticed my mistake, swap true with false. Answer edited. Thanks. – Alaa Masoud Jul 03 '17 at 20:30

If you want to disable at server-side, you can use Enable. Otherwise, you can use @Alaa Masoud's answer to disable at client-side.

For example,

@(Html.Kendo().MultiSelectFor(model => model.Ids)
    .BindTo(Model.AvailableNames)
    .DataTextField("Text")
    .DataValueField("Value")
    .Enable(Model.IsActive))

.Enable(false) does not seem to do anything. I can still edit the control. – Enrico Nov 19 '19 at 12:25
