==================

Hello forum,

in my survey, I've got a multiple numerical input question with two subquestions and I am using the slider layout. I want the participant to see the two subquestions in one page, but he/she must firstly answert the first question before being able to move the second slider. Does anybody have any advice? Thanks in advance.

Why didn't you answer the initial questions?

Now my question:
How do you define " A slider is answered"?

You can only be sure if you use two separate questions.

Hello Jeff,

sorry for the vague description, by "A slider is answered" I mean that the participant has moved the slider (aka has put in a number
my problem more generally:
1. I'd like to show two questions in one screen
2. the participant sees both questions
3. the participant cannot answer the second question (put anything in) before having answered the first question

Is there any way to do so?

And again you did not answer the initial questions, as Joffm asked you to:

Please help us help you and fill where relevant:
Your LimeSurvey version: [see right hand bottom of your LimeSurvey admin screen]
Own server or LimeSurvey hosting:
Survey theme/template:

For your question the theme, the version and if it is selfhosted might be very important.

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).

And again I ask "When is the first question answered?"

Let's imagine:

1.
The respondent moves the first slider.
Now he is able to move the second slider.
And the respondent moves the second slider.
He changes his opinion and changes the position of the first slider.

So it was more or less useless to lock the second slider.

2.
To avoid the above let's change the scenario a bit:
After the first slider is answered, the second slider gets unlocked, but the first slider gets locked.

The respondent moves the first slider.
Unintentionally he releases the mouse button before he reaches the final position (or he releases it, but would like to refine the position)
Now the first slider is locked and the respondent has no chance to set this slider to the desired position.

So, I do not see any sense in it.

But anyway:
Maybe you may try this
In the source code of the first slider question insert this

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" data-author="Tony Partner">    
    $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
        // Identify elements
        var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
        var slid1 = $('.answer-item.slider-item:eq(0) input:text');
 
        $(slid1).on('slideEnabled',function(){ 
 
            // Listener on slider
            $(this).on('slide slideStop', function(event) {
                  $('.slid2 .slider-container').show();
            });
        });
    });
</script>

You see the pupose is to show the second slider if the first is moved.

And in the second slider question add the css class "slid2" and this script

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">    
    $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
           $('.slid2 .slider-container').hide();
    });
</script>
