Sizing my drop down Menu | XM Community
Skip to main content
So i am having some issues with a dropdown menu i have. Essentially what is happening is the menu is not sized correctly to fit the choices. This only started happening when i started using Select2. Select2 seems to work fine in other drop downs I have. Is there a way for me to hard code the width of the drop down in? ! Thank you! Cameron

@TomG Thank you worked perfect!
@TomG or @CameronBudd would you mind helping me getting this to work as well? Specifically, I run the 'select2' with the following details: HEADER <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.6-rc.0/css/select2.min.css" rel="stylesheet" /> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.6-rc.0/js/select2.min.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" QUESTION JAVASCRIPT Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { jQuery("#"+this.questionId).find('select:first').select2(); }); QUESTION TYPE I am running it as a Multi Select Box. This works, and follows @TomG's great input in other threads. Yet, I fail to 'integrate' the width part after following the external link above. Currently, the width is not large enough. Can you please advice? Also, I am certainly not an expert in this game, so the more specific you can be the better - I appreciate it!
Apologies - in the header, I have the following: <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.6-rc.0/css/select2.min.css" rel="stylesheet" /> <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.6-rc.0/js/select2.min.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet"
- it cuts off parts of the element I have in the header. I am very sorry for the inconvenience and all these messages.
@Dennis_Jacobsen, You specify the width in the select2 options object. Something like this: ``` Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() { jQuery("#"+this.questionId).find('select:first').select2({width:"100%"}); }); ``` P.S. On the Community, to post code like above, put in "fences" like this: \\`\\`\\` paste your code here \\`\\`\\`
Thank you @TomG ! :-)
