I am using **Select2 jQuery Plugin**.

<https://select2.github.io/> for reference

When I am using the multiple dropdown option. The result of selected items is shown as tags in a box but, I just want to show the number of items selected. 

Is it possible with **Select2 jQuery plugin**

**HTML**

```
<select multiple style="width:100%">
  <option value="1">Name1</option>
  <option value="2">Name2</option>
  <option value="3">Name3</option>
  <option value="4">Name4</option>
  <option value="5">Name5</option>
  <option value="6">Name6</option>
  <option value="7">Name7</option>
</select>

```

**JS**

```
$('select').select2();

```

I want output as below

instead of tag like output.
