How to auto-close survey with 5 second timer upon completion

Sorry I'm not good at javascript but I'm sure this probably is an easy ask, and I cannot find the answer anywhere? Is it possible to auto close the survey flyout window on desktop or mobile devices 5 seconds after completion(just enough time to read the thank you message).

Create a custom end of survey message, edit the source (looks like a rectangle with <> in it), and add this code after whatever message you want to be displayed:

<script>
setTimeout(function(){
window.close();
}, 5000);
</script>

That should wait 5 seconds and then close. If you want to change the amount of time it waits, change `5000` to the amount of time in milliseconds (the amount of seconds you want times 1000).

Note that this didn't seem to work for me when I previewed the survey, but it worked when I tested it out on an anonymous link distribution.

Does this logic work for Slider surveys as well?
It doesnt seem to work for me.

I have successfully applied it to one of my other surveys but does not work on slider survey.

If we want to to use this code snippet to create a 5 seconds test? how should we modify it?

Action: Question X with an image is displayed for N number of seconds, then moves to the following question.
