Bipolar Matrix – Right-Side Label Display Issue with 17-Point AHP Scale (Need Help Wrapping Text) | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hi everyone,

I'm currently designing a survey with a bipolar matrix using a 17-point scale for AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) pairwise comparisons.

The issue I’m facing is that the right-side labels (please refer to the attached screenshots below) are stacked vertically with one word per line — they don’t wrap naturally like the left-side labels.

I’ve tried various CSS and JavaScript solutions, including changing width, white-space, word-break, and table-layout, but nothing seems to fix it completely. Qualtrics Support confirmed this is a known limitation when using a wide matrix like this.

Has anyone successfully styled a 17-point bipolar matrix with properly wrapped right-hand labels? Or has anyone found a better workaround while keeping the AHP logic intact?

Any advice, custom code, or example setups would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks in advance,
Bao

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the clear instructions on using mfBipolarMatrix. I followed the steps, but I don’t have the actual function code. Could you please let me know how I can access it?

Thanks again!
