Hello forum users,

I hope I can get some advice on the following issue.
When presenting survey questions, using radiobuttons, every question is numbered in ascending order for participants.  However, my survey consists of several distinctive sets of questions (e.g., Question A, sub-questions A1, A2, A3, Question B, sub-questions B1, B2, B3, Question C, sub-questions C1, C2, C3). Numbering the questions might be confusing for participants as all the questions are not on the same level. Is there a way to work around/disable question numbering?

Of course I can create an experiment for each set, and combine them in a batch-file. But it will save me time when I can just somehow turnoff numbering.

Thank you for your help.
Best, Koen

You can disable the automatic question numbering via the <survey>'s or individual <surveypage>s' /showquestionnumbers attribute. I.e. by setting it to false:

<survey mysurvey>
...
/ showquestionnumbers = false
</survey>

and/or

<surveypage mypage>
...
/ showquestionnumbers = false
</surveypage>

If you want to disable the automatic page numbering as well, the attribute that controls this is /showpagenumbers.
