How to change the background color of the first coloum in Multiple Choice question? | XM Community
Skip to main content
I have 3 x 3 Multiple Choice question. I want to change the background color of the first colomn in this matrix. How can I do it? And I am also wondering how I can change the setting of just a few choices in specific positions. But I don't know where I can get to know the id of the choices in the Multiple Choice matrix I set?

Thanks a lot.
Hi @cqulihui,



This is possible at the column level.



You would need to know the column id of the 3 x 3 table.



If you want to accomplish something as shown in the screenshot attached, you can enter the code under Look and Feel>Style>Custom CSS.



To mention, this code is not specific to a particular matrix question. The below settings would apply to all matrix questions.



td.c4 {

background-color:#90EE90;

}

td.c5{

background-color:yellow;

}

td.c6{

background-color:#FA8072;

}

label.q-radio.q-checked{

background-color:black !important;

}



!
Thanks very much for your help! @jainshubham

If I get it right, after I add this code into Look&Feel-->Style, the background color of all the tables will be changed.

I just want to change one Multiple Choice question. How can I do this? And I have been looking for the column id. I failed to find it. Where can I find the ids?

Thanks a lot!

Paste the following code in the js(OnReady) of the matrix question



jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" td.c4").css("background","grey");
Hi @Shashi,

Thanks for your help. I have tried your code. But it doesn't work. I use a Multiple Choice question, not a matrix question. I am not sure whether the question type is the reason that the code doesn't work.

Thanks again.
