How Do I Remove Focus from Select2?

You can remove focus from a Select2 dropdown by using the select2:close event. This event fires when the dropdown is closed, allowing you to remove focus from the Select2 element.

Here's how to implement it:

1. Listen for the select2:close event: Use jQuery's .on() method to listen for the select2:close event on your Select2 element.
2. Remove focus: Within the event handler, use the blur() method to remove focus from the Select2 element.

Example:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#mySelect2').select2();

    $('#mySelect2').on('select2:close', function(e) {
        $(this).blur(); 
    });
});

In this example:

• $('#mySelect2') selects the Select2 element with the ID mySelect2.
• .on('select2:close', ...) listens for the select2:close event on the Select2 element.
• $(this).blur(); removes focus from the Select2 element when the dropdown closes.

This approach ensures that the Select2 element loses focus when the dropdown closes, allowing you to manage focus within your application as needed.
