Hi,

I'd like to change the text at the bottom of a matrix constant sum question from "Total" to something else. Javscript isn't my forte--how could I do this?

Thanks!

Is there a code to change the total label in a constant sum matrix table with the Total column on the right?

@_Hannah1073,

Start a new thread and post _details_ on your specific constant sum question (e.g., settings, image, etc.).

Dear Tom, thanks for your help. Unfortunately this one does not work in my case either to override the standard label.

I used: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()
{
jQuery("label[for="+this.questionId+"_Total]").html("New Total Label");
});

Any clues?

It appears Qualtrics has made a change to the html structure since this question and answer were originally posted. Try this instead:
```
jQuery("label[for="+this.questionId+"_Total]").html("New Total Label");
```

Add this to the addOnload function:
```
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .c1:last").html("New Total Label");
```

It's on the bottom, by scale point. Thanks.
