Retake Response: Some questions Read-Only? JavaScript?

Question

I am trying to have a retake link where some of the questions and selected answers can be viewed but not edited.I know how to skip questions completely in the retake, and I can show or hide questions based on the retake link. But I cannot figure out how to in the retake link show some of the questions and selected answers, but read-only. I think it's possible with javascript but I have all sorts of question types - multiple choice, text entry, dropdown, file upload.For example, imagine that a student takes a test in Qualtrics, and the professor is reviewing that test and putting comments in a new text entry question at the bottom for students. I don't want the professor to accidentally change any of the students' answers. - (Please note that this is just an example scenario to get the idea across).Thanks!

Something like this could probably work for you:Create an embededd variable at the start of the survey, but do not give it any value. Lets call it retake.When sending the links to the professors, add retake as a URL query parameter (see the support pages for details). With a value to lets say yes.To all your comment questions, add display logic to be only visible when retake=yes.In the questions intended for students, add this JS to ensure that profs don't change the values, it will only be triggered if retake is yes:Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function(){letrt="${e://Field/retake}",quest=this;if(rt=="yes"){quest.questionContainer.style.pointerEvents="none";quest.questionContainer.onkeydown=function(e){e.preventDefault();};}});
