Carry Forward Statement Randomization & Slider Question

When I have multiple matrix tables, I love setting randomization on the first table, and carry forward statements (displayed) on the following tables. 

This makes it so the random order a respondent sees on Q1 is the same order as Q2, which improves data quality and eases respondent burden. 

Unfortunately, this feature is lost on Slider questions--Slider questions require you have one “new” statement, and carry forwards do not count. And what is a slider question if not just a “gamified” matrix question?

So I ask Qualtrics, please, let there be slider questions with no “new” statements when there is a Carry Forward option.

 

Thank you, and I yield my time.

Hello @TerryFoster,  if you haven't already, I’d recommend posting this in on Evolve, our new product ideation program. 😁 If you’re not sure how to post your idea, check out our Product Ideation Overview and our Create an Idea post

@TerryFoster,

I would classify this as a bug instead of a feature. Therefore, I would try opening a trouble ticket. I can’t remember exactly, but I don’t think it has always been this way.

BTW, a simple workaround is to add ‘False’ display logic to the one new choice.
