multiselect in angular-ui-select bootstrap- keep items in menu list?

Question

Is there a way to keep items in the dropdown list in an angular-mutliselect-ui-select control? I want to click an item, so it is added as selected but keep it in the list (if it is clicked again- nothing should happen).

Answer 1

Straightforward hack is to change $select.removeSelected = true; to false in select.js. A small example is here (see script.js, line: 1244), may be there is a way to do it externally without modifying script.js.
