Group: Forum Members Posts: 22, Visits: 376	Hi, I am trying to set up some sliders on a survey page using fixed positions (e.g., 50%, 20%) but on my screen the positions are completely off - 50% horizontally is definitely not 50%- more like 70-80% of the canvas width. Does the default space on the left where question numbers would go on a survey page affects these coordinates? If yes, do you have any guidelines for properly positioning elements on a surveypage (e.g., if I want 50% I should input 40% or something like that). I am trying to recreate the sliders below, which means I need to have exact positions for picture elements relative to the slider elements. Thanks, Loukia

Thanks, Loukia Positions on surveypages are always relative to the _left_ border of the element being position. I.e. if you are trying to position an <image> element <image example> ... / position = (50%, ...) <image> means \| ------ 50% ----->[image] ^ ^ left left margin margin of of page image I.e., you'd need to take the width of the element to be positioned into account. If the image has a width of 20% of the screen width, then it would be centered horizontally at /position = (40%, ...).
