Hi Qualtrics Community, I have a matrix table question where each row label is formatted as “Name1 vs Name2” ( these names are piped data from previous participants responses. For each pair, I have two text entry values from different questions:${q://QID20/ChoiceTextEntryValue/1} (and up to 10 for QID20) ${q://QID11/ChoiceTextEntryValue/1} (and up to 10 for QID11)But participants don't need to mention all 10 names for each question. I want to use JavaScript to hide a matrix row if both or one of corresponding text entry values (for Name1 or Name2) are not present (i.e., empty).Can anyone create a code for this, struggling to make it work? Thank you!

Hi Qualtrics Community,

I have a matrix table question where each row label is formatted as “Name1 vs Name2” ( these names are piped data from previous participants responses. For each pair, I have two text entry values from different questions:

${q://QID20/ChoiceTextEntryValue/1} (and up to 10 for QID20)
${q://QID11/ChoiceTextEntryValue/1} (and up to 10 for QID11)

But participants don't need to mention all 10 names for each question.

I want to use JavaScript to hide a matrix row if both or one of corresponding text entry values (for Name1 or Name2) are not present (i.e., empty).

Can anyone create a code for this, struggling to make it work?

Thank you!
