How to change textbox size of "Allow Text Entry" in an MC question

Hi,

With “Allow Text Entry” for MC options, it only allows small/medium/large textbox size. How can I adjust the textbox size? I’d like it to be 1 line’s height and longer width. 

 

I tried the code from this post but it doesn’t work

 

Is it correct to right-click the textbox for “Add Javascript”

 

Should I paste the code here?

 

Thanks.

Try using the below code in the JS:

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()
{
	/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/

	jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").css("width","100%");

});

Try below code:

{
	/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/

	jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .TextEntryBox").css("width","100%");
	jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").css("width","100%");

});
