My question is: How do I implement a feature (such as a vertical line or maybe put the option on a new row) that separates the last option in a clear way. I have been looking at these threads:

Question
How do I add a way to separate a scale point from the rest of the scale in a horizontal MC question
I am currently making a questionnaire and using a format which uses horizontal multiple choice format to incorporate a 7-point likert scale. On a couple of items I have to add a "I prefer not to answer" option besides the 7-point scale. The format looks like this:

I am indeed asking about a MC instead of Matrix. I added the following code to the html view of the question text:
<style>
@media only screen and (min-width:481px) {
td:last-of-type { border-left: 1px solid grey; }
td:last-of-type label { margin-left:10px; }
}
</style>
This caused the vertical lines to appear on the page that I wanted it to, but did not appear on the mobile version (and it weirdly shows the vertical lines on every single questions in my survey on the edit screen). I got lost with the QID part of your explanation and am not sure what to paste in the html view, in order to make it work for both versions on specific questions.

One of the posts you sited has answers to your questions - mobile and specific QID. You need a different media rule for mobile. You'll have to use the correct QID number for your question.
```
@media only screen and (min-width:481px) {
#QID59 td:last-of-type { border-left: 1px solid grey; }
#QID59 td:last-of-type label { margin-left:10px; }
}
@media only screen and (max-width:480px) {
#QID59 td:last-of-type { border-top: 1px solid grey; }
#QID59 td:last-of-type label { margin-top:25px; }
}
```
