I am asking respondents to think of as many examples as they can within a one minute time frame (open text entry), and would like to populate a new text entry field each time they hit 'enter'.
A previous attempt to use display logic did not succeed - any suggestions?
Thanks so much!

Hello @Ig236 ,
You can use form field question type with all except first text entry hidden and based on enter key up event show the next text entry field.

Thank you so much, can that be achieved through the display logic? I'm still struggling to find where to define the logic you mentioned.

I attempted to resolve this using display logic within the choice selection, however, since the "in page" option does not work for choices, the additional fields still do not appear
@lg236 You won't be able to do this with display logic because that would only work after the question had be answered, not after a field had been inputted. As @Shashi said, you'll need to use javascript to code this.
Otherwise, I suggest you reach out to the support team and ask them to file a Feature Request. I feel like I've seen a request for this type of functionality often recently and maybe that will push it up the list faster.

Thanks - I've played around with some JS and achieved my desired functionality, however, the entries are not saving consistently across blocks. I am using the below code across 14 blocks, and in one instance blocks 3 & 7 may be blank, while the next instance blocks 3&7 are population but 2&6 are not, for example.
Any thoughts on ways to improve the way the entries are being saved?
