Hide text box in a multi-text sub-question was created by Eliott13
Hi. I'm new in the forum. I hope you can bear with me I am working with a survey where I show images in a question of "several short texts" So the person who answers the interview gives a brief description of the images he sees. the problem is that the same images are shown several times in several questions, but in each question a random image will be hidden. so I would like that image that is hidden to respect the position, that is, if image 2 is hidden, that place is respected and it remains blank. Obviously if I put an empty sub-question, it will show me the description box. What I would like to know if there is any way to hide this text box so that it only appends a blank image and the position is respected. I hope I was very clear in my comments. A big hug to all. Elliot

How are you randomly hiding the images?

Hello,

thanks for reading me,

Images are already hidden by default.

I mean that in each question it is already specified which image to hide.

That is:

P1. remove image 2
P2. remove image 4
P3. remove image 1
P4. remove image 5
P5. remove image 3

I don't do anything, I only remove the image according to the question, but I want this space to be respected so that the interviewee becomes familiar with the position of the images.

Thank you. :)

So you manually have the images removed? Why not including a white "image" where you removed this image?
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

Maybe, as Holch suggests, insert a blank image with a specific class. Then you could use JavaScript to detect those images and hide the corresponding text input.

What LimeSurvey version are you using?

Can you attach a small sample survey (.lss file) containing only one question?

Thank you very much to both.

It is exactly what I am looking for.

Well, as I mentioned before, I put a blank image where I do not want the image to be shown so that I respect the position.

As Tony mentions, maybe with Java I can achieve this.

I don't really know anything about Java, and that frustrates me a bit.

I am enclosing the lss survey so you can see a bit of what I am building.

A hug to you both.

Eliott

Assign a class "blank-spacer" to the image and place this script in the question source:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">  
  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
    $('#question{QID} .blank-spacer').closest('li')
      .find('input.form-control')
        .prop('disabled', true)
        .css({
          'opacity': 0,
          cursor: 'default'
        });
    });
</script>

Hi, Tony,

I offer you a huge apology.

I think I forgot for a moment to mention to you that the version I use is 2.50x

I don't know if the script doesn't work for this version as I did the steps but it doesn't execute correctly.

Regards.

Eliott

Yes it must be something with the version.

I tried it on the 3x and it worked fine, hide the text box as you mention.

Maybe Tony has a script for your version :)

Cheers

Hi, Tony,

You really are a master for us who do not know anything about Java.

I want to return to the subject, since I am faced with a dilemma similar to Eliott's, but in this case I want to do it with a multiple type question.

It really is the same as Elliot did but with a multiple choice question.

Is there anything that can work?

I really appreciate the help.
