Has anyone done a slider or something similar to a tachometer in an EX project ( Engagement for example ). I assume the only option would be using Javascript, but I am having some troubles with getting it to work properly. 

Any input is appreciated!

Hello, Miroslavchobanov,

Creating a tachometer or slider widget is not supported by built-in Qualtrics widgets and requires custom JavaScript (JS). Successful implementation can be tricky due to platform compatibility and site interference.

 

Key Challenges & Solutions

 

  1. Code Conflicts: Ensure your JavaScript is compatible with the Qualtrics environment and use browser developer tools to diagnose conflicts.

  2. Display Issues: Verify that fixed or floating elements on your website are not interfering with the positioning or behavior of the custom gauge.

  3. Complexity/Trouble: If the custom JS proves too challenging, explore alternative creatives like the Feedback Button, which may achieve similar engagement goals with less risk.

  4. Persistent Errors: If external debugging fails, submit a Pulse with product support or consult Qualtrics engineering for dedicated assistance.

Summary: While custom JS is necessary for this visualization, be prepared for thorough testing. Leveraging support channels and testing in controlled environments are essential for a successful deployment.
