Is there a way to "Position text above" when using the Profile format for a Matrix table? | XM Community
Skip to main content

"Position text above" seems to be only available when using Standard likert, but not Profile.

It can be done with JavaScript. See matrixProfileTextAbove.

Thank you. I'm glad to see that it's possible, but does anyone else have free code they're willing to share?

A few years ago I was able to manage to somehow trick Qualtrics into doing this without using JavaScript. I just can't recall how I did it.

Thank you, but those options are only available for Likert and not Profile. On a separate note... why???

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/52686#Comment_52686fuhred I believe you can include the below code for moving the text up in profile matrix type question.
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function()
{
/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/

var n= jQuery('#'+this.questionId).find('.c1').length;
for(let i=0; i jQuery('#'+this.questionId).find('.c1').eq(i).insertBefore(jQuery('#'+this.questionId).find('.ChoiceRow').eq(i));

}

});
Hope it helps!

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/52691#Comment_52691That JS doesn't quite work properly. Ignoring that the moved tables cells aren't in table rows:

  • The statements don't span columns so long statements mess up the formatting

  • The mobile accordion doesn't collapse properly

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/52825#Comment_52825Thank you for highlighting the error.
I did it on the default question text. Hence, might have missed the span issue.
Will try to update it if possible. Meanwhile, do you mind suggesting the correct CSS approach here?
