Trigger blur on select2

Question

I was wondering if there is a way to trigger blur on a select2 v3.5.2. I know v4.0 is out, however I am not at a position where I can perform an upgrade to the latest version.

On another SO thread, I discovered a (undocumented possibly) way of gaining focus on select2:

$(mySelect).select2('focus');

So I am wondering if there is a way of doing:

$(mySelect).select2('blur');

Answer 1

You could do it using :

setTimeout(function() {
    $('.select2-container-active').removeClass('select2-container-active');
    $(':focus').blur();
}, 1);

Hope this helps.
