Numbering radiobutton items

Group: Forum Members Posts: 26, Visits: 194	Hello. I prepared a list of 16 radiobutton items on one page. I wonder if I can somehow make the number of each item (1-16) appears in the output file. (See attached.) Thanks! Ali PS. I made up the format of this file. If you spot anything wrong in it, please let me know. Attachments test sem.iqx (963 views, 12.00 KB) Tags radiobutton

However, for data analysis purposes it's just a matter of a simple "recode" operation on the trialcode column. Save for actually naming your <radiobuttons> elements "1" to "16" (which I would not recommend in general). I.e., <surveypage explicitsem1> / stimulusframes = [1=arabs; 2=english] / questions = [1=hardworking_anchor; 2=1; 3=lazy_anchor; 4=know_anchor; 5=2; 6=ignorant_anchor; ...] [...] </surveypage> [...] <radiobuttons 1> / caption = "" / options = ("", "", "", "", "", "", "") / optionvalues = ("3", "2", "1", "0", "-1", "-2", "-3") / fontstyle = ("Verdana", -20, true, false, false, false, 5, 0) / orientation = horizontal / size = (10%, 90%) / position = (40, 10) / txcolor = (0, 255, 0) </radiobuttons> [...] <radiobuttons 2> / caption = "" / options = ("", "", "", "", "", "", "") / optionvalues = ("3", "2", "1", "0", "-1", "-2", "-3") / fontstyle = ("Verdana", -20, true, false, false, false, 5, 0) / orientation = horizontal / size = (10%, 90%) / position = (40, 15) / txcolor = (0, 255, 0) </radiobuttons> Edited 10 Years Ago by Dave

Group: Forum Members Posts: 26, Visits: 194	Thanks Dave, that's really clever. I'll think about which way to follow. By the way, I noticed that because the response is required, when I click Next before answering all items the two questions disappear. This might confuse some respondents (which group is which). Is there a way to prevent questions from disappearing? Best, Ali

Group: Forum Members Posts: 26, Visits: 194	Thanks again Dave. I noticed a similar problem that occurs when a required answer is not supplied. The neighboring text disappears. (See attached p.2). Thanks again. Attachments 6 demographics.iqx (893 views, 4.00 KB)

Here you can also try setting <survey demographics> / onblockbegin= [survey.demographics.rightmargin=50%] / pages = [1=demographics1; 2=demographics2; 3=demographics3] / showpagenumbers = false / showbackbutton = false / nextlabel = "Next" / finishlabel = "Finish" / nextbuttonposition = (95%, 90%) </survey> Edited 10 Years Ago by Dave

Group: Forum Members Posts: 26, Visits: 194	Thanks Dave, this is really great! One more thing: Is it possible to underline a single word in a text, caption... etc. I'm aware that I can underline the whole thing, but what about just one word? Ali
