Matrix table - drag & drop horizontally aligned

Question

Hi! For my research, I would like to use the Matrix table - drag & drop. Mainly because Qualtrics does support scoring in this question type but not in 'select, group and rank'. However, I would like to have the items horizontally above the 'answer boxes'. In addition, the largest questions consist of 8 boxes and 18 items. Unfortunately, the combination of the following javascript code & CSS codes do not work for this. I have already tried replacing the PGR in the CSS code with jQuery, but this does not give the desired result either. Javascript: Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/ var qid = this.questionId;var lastrow = '#'+qid+' > div.Inner.BorderColor.DragAndDrop > div > fieldset > div > table tr:last'; jQuery(lastrow).after('...'); }); Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/ var qid = this.questionId;var groupcont = '#'+qid+' > div.Inner.BorderColor.DragAndDrop > div > fieldset > div > table > tbody > tr > td.groupsContainerTd.BorderColor';var newrow = '#'+qid+' > div.Inner.BorderColor.DragAndDrop > div > fieldset > div > table > tbody > tr:nth-child(2)'; jQuery(groupcont).detach().appendTo(newrow); }); Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnUnload(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded*/ }); CSS: /* Use full screen */.Skin .SkinInner {width: 100% !important;max-width: 100% !important;}/* fix Group headers */.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Group h2 {width: 100% !important;font-size: 12px;}/* Shrink Group containers */.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Group>div>ul, .Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Items>ul { min-height: 120px !important;}/* Shrink Group container */.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop td.groupsContainerTd div>div { min-height: 120px !important;}/* Remove item padding, item sizing */.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .QuestionBody .Group>div>ul>li, .Skin .RO .DND>ul>li {padding: 5px !important;width: 150px !important;}/* Label sizing*/.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .QuestionBody label {width: 100px !important;}/* Item sizing */.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Items>ul>li {width: 92px !important;display: block !important;}/* Item sizing */.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Items { width: 100% !important;}/* Hide rank */.rank {display: none !important;}/* Set Group Width and Item Columns */@media (min-width:481px) {.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Group { width: 23%;}.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Items ul {width: 100% !important; columns: 7; -webkit-columns: 7; -moz-columns: 7;}}@media (max-width:480px) {.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Group { width: 50% !important;}.Skin .PGR .DragAndDrop .Items ul {width: 100% !important; columns: 2; -webkit-columns: 2; -moz-columns: 2;}} Can anyone help to get both codes working so that all 18 items are visible horizontally above the 8 boxes? I saw that @Tom_1842 and @TomG solve this kind of problem more often, so maybe you can help me further? So that it ends up looking something like this (this does not require the items to contain the images as shown). Thank you very much in advance!

Hi@IsaN99, I gave it a try with a Matrix Drag and Drop and think the below comes close to your description. I used CSS to extend the size of the Selections + Answers containers and adjusted the size of the elements within those containers. Using Classic layout, create a Matrix question and set it to Drag and Drop. Set it to 18 statements, 8 scale points, and fill up the statements with your pictures. Then, add the below CSS to the Style section of the survey's Look & Feel:/*full screen width*/.Skin .SkinInner {    width: 99% !important;    max-width: 99% !important;}.Skin .QuestionOuter.Matrix {    width: 99% !important;    max-width: 99% !important;}/*full container widths and selections and answers on own row*/.JFEScope .DND .Choices {    width: 100% !important;}.JFEScope .DND .Answers {    width: 100%;}/*statement adjustments*/.JFEScope .DND .Selection {    width: 5%;    margin: 1px !important;    list-style: none !important;    display: inline-block;    padding: 1px !important;    border: none !important;}/*Answer bucket adjustments*/.JFEScope .DND .AnswerContainer {    width: 23% !important;    margin: 2px !important;    padding: 1px !important;}.JFEScope .DND .AnswerBucket li {    width: 20% !important;    text-align: center !important;}/*other styles*/img {text-align: center !important;}li {    text-align: center;}ul.ChoiceStructure {    display: flex;}/*filler hiding*/.JFEScope .DND li.filler {    display: none;}edit: updated answer bucket li sizing
