+1Hello,
I would like to add a row into a matrx table (statement) that provides an illustrative example of how the question might be answered. I found a very similar question here:
However, some time has passed, and I wonder if there is another way to do it besides adding a screenshot?
I am quite new to Qualtrics, so hope I didn’t miss something very evident.
Thank you very much!

Try including below code in JavaScript section
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
jQuery('td.c1').append('<div><i>Example:</i> Winter Wheat</div>');
jQuery('th.c4').append('<div><i>Example:</i> 25 </div>').css('padding', '0px');
});
Hope it helps!
+27What the original poster asked for was to be able to disable the first row after specifying a default choice. You can do that like this (if you aren’t using simple layout):
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" tr.ChoiceRow:first [type=radio]").prop("disabled",true);
});
+1Thanks a lot
However, I am not sure if I did it correctly. The respondent can still in theory overwrite the example in the first row, and when doing a “carry forward” of the statements to another question, the example (as a default choice in the first row) appears in the follow up question. I am not sure whether I am explaining myself, or maybe this is well beyond my abilities haha
Thank you!
+46can you provide illustrations of what is required?

If the radio buttons in the first row aren’t disabled, my guess is you are using simple layout.
If you need carry forward, you should probably create a separate matrix question for the example.
+1Thanks a lot for yor help, and apologies for my late reply. Here is an illustration of what I would like to accomplish (I am not sure if it is possible). Thanks again!
