==================
Hey there -

I'm a newby and apologize in advance for my rudimentary questions. The version of LimeSurvey I'm using is hosted by my employer so I don't know where to find my LimeSurvey version. One of my survey questions is Array (Numbers) and I'd like to limit the number of answers in each row to one. The answers are No and Yes so there shouldn't be two.

Thank you!

Why are you using an array-numbers for yes/no? Use a normal array question - www.limesurvey.org/manual/Question_type_-_Array/en

Thanks @tpartner for your quick response! I chose this because my conditional logic allows users in the previous question to select multiple answers, which create the y-axis questions. If more than one answer in the previous question was selected, the user was only able to select one radio button per column. So I switched to array-numbers with checkboxes. I've included a screen shot, which will hopefully help.

But this doesn't affect the type of array.
Either you use "array filter" or subquestion relevance to display the rows.

@joffm thank you for your comment but I'm not having trouble with the rows displaying. I'd like to limit the number of answers in each row to one and I don't know how to do that.

Use an array question, not array-numbers and not array-by-column.

I'd like to limit the number of answers in each row to one and I don't know how to do that.

I knew that, but tpartner already had told you to use a normal array.
But afterwards you talked again about array(numbers).

Therefore I just explained that array filter is usable in each array type.

Not more.
