Hello all,
I have a dropdown list with around 20 values. I want to add an option "other", which when clicked opens a text entry field where the user could enter more details about the "other" option. Also it will be great if this additional added text also shows up when I carryover selected answer choices to the next question. I tried but I could not figure out a way to do this.
Any leads/help are appreciated,
Thanks.

Adding text entry field to a value in the drop down list
Best answer by TomG
You could follow the dropdown with a text entry question that asks for the "Other" text using in-page display logic. Then use choice display logic on all the choices in the follow-up question since carryforward won't meet your needs.
+27Dropdowns don't support "allow text" on choices. You should switch your question to a single or multi-select multiple choice with "Allow text" on the Other choice. Then you can carryforward "Selected choices - Entered text"
Thanks TomG! I am somehow limited by dropdowns for my case. Is there any other way to achieve this using dropdowns in your opinion?
