Static text, after a text entry box that is attached to a multiple choice selection, is slightly off | XM Community
Skip to main content
So I used the following code that I found on this site to add a " %" symbol after a text entry option. This worked for a question that only had a textbox in it, but not for another question that had two multiple choice (a YES and a NO), with the NO option requiring a numerical input. The percent symbol next to this box was slightly upwards and looks quite odd. This is the code I am using currently:



Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()

{

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



var inputs = $(this.getQuestionContainer()).select('input[type="text"]')



var input = inputs[0];

$(input).insert({after: ' %'});

});



And here is an image of what I am seeing:

!



Any help in moving the percent symbol to be more centred would be appreciated.
For anyone dealing with this problem, I found a solution:



Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()

{

/*Place Your Javascript Below This Line*/



var inputs = $(this.getQuestionContainer()).select('input[type="text"]');



var input = inputs[0];

$(input).insert({after: '<span style="line-height:45px">%</span>'});

});



This I assume moves the line that the symbol rests on.

MatinE I am having this same issue, but the code you provide above doesn't correct it for me. I don't see a difference between the code you first posted and the solution code above. Help? Thanks!
