Have you got some idea how can I fixed and it looks nicely and on the right of question?
I tried some JavaScripts also but it didn't work.
Also tried Old Editor but it didn't work.

Use the following and change the width (100% forces it to wrap to next line):

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/25309#Comment_25309Hi TomG,
How would the code need to change when using the "Classic" layout? I'm also displaying choices in 3 columns. I'd like the text entry box to appear inside of the choice box, as currently it is messing up the layout of my first column.

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/50347#Comment_50347Offhand, I don't know. I haven't used the 'column' setting in years because it isn't mobile friendly. I use mcColumns instead. Then I use mcTextEntry to move text inputs inside the choice buttons (it performs a number of other functions too). I regularly use the combination with Classic layout.
