Is there a way [other than using a Text Entry Form to creat a time of day question? | XM Community
Skip to main content

I have survey which is going to ask respondents, when an event happened and how long it lasted. And do it multiple times. I can simply the responses to just hours and minutes and can make a Text Entry Form with to vertically arranged boxed. But this looks odd. Is there a way to have the two part response appear horizontally?

You could use a flatpicker JS:
Question type: Text Entry
Add this script in the JavaScript section on the individual questions:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()
{
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").flatpickr({
     dateFormat: "G:i K",
enableTime: true,
noCalendar: true,
  });

});

And include this in the survey's header: Look and Feel>General>Header (html view)
