I’m having trouble using the EQ-5D under the Qualtrics New Survey Taking Experience.
After creating a new survey from the QSF file upload (Effective_USA (English) EQ-5D-5L Qualtrics Self-Complete v2.1.qsf), I switched to the new survey taking experience and the VAS disappeared.

EuroQol support was able to provide some guidance, but the VAS is still not appearing after applying their instructions.

Has anyone been able to use EQ-5D vertical slider under the new survey taking experience? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
