If it doesn't work out to your satisfaction, send me a private message. I have a more sophisticated solution.
Will do, many thanks for the offer, Tom.
Hi Tom. It worked well. So I am happy with that. Thanks again for the help.
The other thing I was wondering about was how to display an arbitrary sign (say a '0' or a vertical line as in the images above) at each of the 7 points (so the snap points on the grid) along each of the question sliders. I currently have the values hidden (they go from 1 to 7) so participants cannot see these but so that the data generated out of the survey includes these values. But I would like each of these values to show as an arbitrary sign (the same sign for all values) so that participants can choose in an informed way one of the 7 seven locations on the slider (with snap to grid on). Is this possible with JS? Kind regards, Joe

```
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" ul.numbers li").html("|");
});
```
Hi Tom. Thank you for the quick reply. Appreciated. I have entered the code you suggested (see image), but the "|" are not appearing when I view the question. Any ideas as to how we might make this work? Likely something I am doing wrong!

Thanks Tom! That worked, although only when I view the survey through the 'Look and Feel' tab (see first image) but not when I look at it using 'Preview' (see second image). What might be the cause of this? Could it be to do with the Custom CSS I have entered for the 'Style' (under the 'Look and Feel' tab). This code is below (it is to hide the values, 1-7, for each point on the slider)

CSS code: .Skin .q-slider ul.numbers {display:none}
Kind regards, Joe
Yes, that line of CSS hides the numbers/tick marks. Remove it.
Fantastic, works fine now. Thanks again, Tom.
