Last Updated : 15 Dec, 2021

The jQuery UI Selectable stop event is used to triggered when the select operation stopped working.

Syntax:

Initialize the Selectable widget with the stop callback function:

$( ".selector" ).selectable({
 stop: function( event, ui ) {}
});

Bind an event listener to the selectablestop event:

$(".selector").on("selectablestop", function( event, ui ) {});

Parameters:

event: This event is triggered when the selecting starts.
ui: It is a jQuery empty object that is used for consistency with other events.
