When asking participants to input their height or weight in inches-feet and stones-pounds, how do you put in two box options

and to also have the option of saying I do not know.

And can you have an option to validate this e.g. can't weight less than x, or be less than 100 cm.

Hi Deer,
You can use Custom Validation to set valid ranges on the text entry fields in your multiple choice options.

Thanks for that!

Is it possible to have two boxes for stones- pounds and feet-inches?

Yes, you can have multiple lines/conditions in the custom validation logic. My example just showed one line.

Sorry, I may not have completely understood what you are trying to do. Do you mean that you want, for example, two different boxes for "feet-inches"? If that's the case, then I don't know of any way to do that, and would suggest just asking for height in inches.

Yes- two boxes to for "feet-inches".
All good- thanks for your help
