syncValueAndText Boolean(default: true)

When set to true the widget will automatically set selected value to the typed custom text. Set the option to false to clear the selected value but keep the custom text.

Example - disable automatic sync between value and text

<input id="multicolumncombobox" />
<script>
$("#multicolumncombobox").kendoMultiColumnComboBox({
  syncValueAndText: true
});
</script>
