In a survey I have a text entry question where respondents can add text. When the respondent goes back and then presses the next button, the text in the text entry box is still in the textbox. But I want the textbox to be empty if the page is loaded again. How can I arrange this by using Javascript? What command do I need? Thanks in advance.

Hello. Apologies if i have missed this answer elsewhere. I have a slider, and I want to dynamically update the difference between player 1 and player 2's income as a function of the quantity player 1 gives to player 2 (this quantity is chosen by using the slider).The below runs fine on a desktop, and works fine in the 'mobile view' when I preview the survey on a desktop. However it does not update when I view the preview on a mobile, nor when I publish and view on a mobile.Any tips re. getting this to work on a mobile would be much appreciated :)Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function() {var give=0;var give2 = give*2;var final_difference = 0;var inc="${e://Field/income_final}";var partner_inc = "${lm://Field/1}";this.questionclick = function(event,element){ give = this.getChoiceValue(1); give2 = give*2; final_difference = "${e://Field/income_final}" - give - "${lm://Field/1}" - give2 ; inc = "${e://Field/income_final}" - give; partner_inc = "${lm://Field/1}" + give2  endupdate(); doc

I need to customize a pick, group, and rank question.as the output is not appealing to the customers. I have 8 statements and need to put 3 statements in the group. What I need is to make the statement container wider to make the statement easier to read. I don't know how to write code in CSS so is there anyone who can help? I have pasted a screenshot of the question below.

I am working on a project where the survey is actually an assessment and we would like to email copy of their responses and they will need to save and share these with their business. The issue is that the response report pdf has horrible formatting and difficult to read. Just looking at what's available to add some spacing and remove images or certain questions from appearing in the report.

I would like do store answers from textbox in an embedded data using javascript. how do i get this done?is document.getElementById useful?Thanks a lot in advance

Hi everybody, I tried to fulfill the field age using the code below:Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("Age", "44") });The field is like this:But it doesnt work. How can I do that?

I want the respondents to answer a question for 120 seconds, and then show the respondents scores later, based on how many question they have created.What I did is that I used custom JS code to automatically hit next button after 120 seconds, and then get the inputs in the textbox into embedded data.Here's the custom code that I used:Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){ setTimeout(function () {jQuery('#NextButton').click();},120000); $('NextButton').onclick = function (event) {    Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData( "answer1", document.getElementById("QR~QID47").value); }});However, the timing was not as accurate as I hoped for, so I added the auto advance timer feature provided by Qualtrics.Now, the problem is that the custom code auto advance and qualtrics auto advance may be colliding, that the page flips over earlier or later than the set time, 120 seconds.I think I should lose the setTimeout and replace it with something else, so that it would still get the input tex

I am trying to run an experiment where participants are shown two images and they have to choose one as quickly as possible - they then have to click the 'next' button. I am using hot spot, so I can record whether they choose the "correct" or "incorrect" image using regions. I am using the timer to record response time. However, I am only interested in where they first click (i.e., in which image region) and how long it takes to do this first click. I am not interested in any subsequent clicks. Qualtrics saves the first click, which is great, but it does not save the region they first clicked on. It enables a person to change their mind and then just saves the last region they clicked on.Any idea how I might be able to solve this problem to get the data I need, or is Qualtrics simply not flexible enough?

Hello!!How can we make the progress bar work when the respondents answer the questions in a single page. In my case, the progress bar moves when I click the next page. I am new to the tool, please help if this functionality is already present in the toolThanks in advance!!

I am adding a timing question with count up. The appearance is not that pleasant. How do I change the format, size, appearance, and location of the timer?

Hi Guys,Does qualtrics have any way to refresh quota after editing responses?any API related to that is very helpful! for example, if i changed male respondent to female in data, gender quota should be refreshed

Hello everyone! Thank you for checking out my post.I have an experiment where participants fill out text entry boxes in one round, then repeat (using the same questions, duplicated in the survey flow). Unfortunately, this doesn't really work at the moment as the answers they put in the first round are already present in the text boxes in the second round.Is there some custom code that can prevent the responses from before being remembered by Qualtrics/the browser, so the boxes are always empty? Thank you very much for your time!

In the heat map questions, can we add a pop-up on the same screen to ask respondents an open-ended (text) question of why they selected/clicked the point on heat map question.

Hi Everyone, I have a PGR question with 36 possible items. I am trying to split the items list into two with 20 on the left and 15-17 on the right. I would like the newly generated columns to have new names. I found the codes to change the name from Item and the code to move the entire list to the right on the forum. Unfortunately, I have no java knowledge so I have not been able to modify the code I found to split the items column. Each item has a display logic so eventually, not all 36 items will populate but I want respondents to be able to see the options available to rank on either side of the group container. The image below is an example of what I am trying to achieve. Does anyone know how to do this?Thank you so much in advance for your help.

Hello! I appreciate you checking out my post.I want to make multiple choice questions which, once a participant clicks their answer, can't be changed (since I want their first instinctive response rather than after they have second-guessed it). Is this lock-in-first-answer situation possible with Javascript code? Thank you very much!

I'm trying to change the font size of the grid numbers (not the text label) on my slider questions. Currently, it looks like below when I preview the block: As can be seen, the grid numbers are much too small compared to the text labels. Is there a CSS code I can enter to make the numbers larger on these particular set of slider questions? Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you.

Will Qualtrics read a check box code? I am using this html code in the build environment, however I am not seeing the checkbox in the preview mode.    opt out  Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Hi, I'm trying to increase the width of my survey. I'm using this: .Skin .SkinInner {min-width: 1000px!important;} However, this messes up the optimization for mobile view. How can I put in a separate CSS code just for the desktop view?

Hi everyone I hope someone can help me with this. So I have a multiple choice question where people are forced to choose 4 answers from a list of 12 choices.Now in a the next question, I want to compare the selected choices with each other. So if a person choose for example banana, apple, pear and cherry from a list of fruit, I would want to ask them how apples compare to pears, then how apples compare to bananas and finally to cherries. So I would ideally like to have a line to pipe each selected answer from 1 question individually, and not all at the same time like ${q://QID62/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices} or the carry over function does. Is there a way to pipe 'selected answer 1', 'selected answer 2' etc. seperately?

Hi everyone, I have a problem that cannot be solved by existing Qualtrics functions. I need to use custom code; however, I don't know anything about coding. I have 3 conditions that will be presented in different random orders. Before each condition, I want to show a sentence like "This is Condition 1"; "This is Condition 2" according to the order the condition appears. In other words, I want to fix blocks containing these sentences under the Randomizer. Does anyone deal with the same problem? Please support me on this request. Thanks in advance.

Hi I have added a text box with an html code (see below attachment). Upon testing the survey, I entered text in the textbox, however there is no texting displaying on the pdf summary or export. Has anyone attempted this before? If so is there any additional code or Javascript that I should be using to ensure that the text is displayed after the survey is completed?

I am very new to coding, particularly within Qualtrics. I have tried everything to build a specific survey, including the support forums, but to no avail. Here is what I am trying to achieve:I have a memory task that I am trying to replicate in Qualtrics as I have moved my study to online data collection. Basically, I have 24 MCQ questions that each have only one response option, to allow a text response. This is to enable piped text, from the text entry field below, to appear in a self-rating block at the end of the survey:The survey is split into three blocks of cue words where 24 cue words are presented only once each across the whole study (24 cue word questions in total across whole survey). Each block begins with the cue word question plus seven slider scale questions, to allow various ratings of the memory previously entered into the MCQ text entry field. After all 24 words, plus slider scale questions, have been answered, participants are then asked to rate each memory that the

Hi,I have two groups of 5 images each. I want to randomly present pairs of images, one from each group, for participants to compare. I want all 5 images from each group to be displayed, and the order of these pair displays to be random. I also want the individual images in each pair to be randomized for each participant. What is the best way to go about this? I do not really understand how to do embedded data with images even though I have seen this answer a lot. When answering my question can you please explain the step by step? I am very stuck here. Thank you in advance! 😊
