Hi there,

I know that there is already a script to fix the last answer option when randomizing it.
Does anyone of you know could we / how to fix the answer at the end and the top at the same time?

for example,
1(fixed)
3
2
4
5(fixed)

1(fixed)
2
4
3​​​
5(fixed)

Thank you very much!

What question type? Can you attach a small sample survey (.lss file) containing only the relevant questions?
Cheers,

 Dear tpartner,

many thanks, I just attached a sample survey,
In the question, E & F have already been fixed at the end.
Now, I want A to be fixed at the top of options

This script, in the question source of a list-radio question, will fix the answer codes defined in the fixedStartCodes variable to the start of the answers list and the codes in the fixedEndCodes variable to the end of the list.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" data-author="Tony Partner">  
 
  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
    // The answer codes of item(s) to be fixed
    var fixedStartCodes = [1];
    var fixedEndCodes = [4,5,6];
 
    // Set this to "true" if you want "Other" to be fixed in the last position
    var otherFixed = false;
 
    // Identify this question
    var qID = '{QID}';
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);
 
    // Fix the item(s) to the start
    $.each(fixedStartCodes, function(i, code) {
      $('.answer-item[id$="X'+qID+code+'"]').prependTo($('.answers-list ul:eq(0)', thisQuestion));
    });    
 
    // Fix the item(s) to the end
    $.each(fixedEndCodes, function(i, code) {
      $('.answer-item[id$="X'+qID+code+'"]').appendTo($('.answers-list ul:eq(0)', thisQuestion));
    });    
 
    // Handle "Other"
    if(otherFixed == true &amp;&amp; $('#question'+qID+' input[type="text"]').length > 0) {
      var otherAnswer = $('#question'+qID+' input[type="text"]');
      var otherAnswerItem = $(otherAnswer ).closest('.answer-item');
      var otherAnswersList = $(otherAnswer ).closest('ul');
      $(otherAnswersList).append(otherAnswerItem);
    }
  });
</script>

Dear Tony,

Thank you very much for your assistance. I tried the syntax you provided, but I couldn't present it smoothly.

In theory, it should be presented this way,
 
but in practice, when I conduct tests, it appears like this.

I sincerely apologize. I do recall that it was supposed to be included, but I might have inserted it before sending it out.

yes I've tried your sample survey, and it can work,
I directly copied the syntax directly from the sample survey and adjusted // The answer codes of item(s) to be fixed
var fixedStartCodes = [1];
var fixedEndCodes = [4, 5, 6];
Due to this question having conditional settings, I am unsure if this will have any implications.

This will handle multiple instances on a page:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" data-author="Tony Partner">  
 
  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
    // The answer codes of item(s) to be fixed
    var fixedStartCodes = [1];
    var fixedEndCodes = [4,5,6];
 
    // Set this to "true" if you want "Other" to be fixed in the last position
    var otherFixed = false;
 
    // Identify this question
    var qID = '{QID}';
    var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);
 
    // Fix the item(s) to the start
    $.each(fixedStartCodes, function(i, code) {
      $('.answer-item[id$="X'+qID+code+'"]').prependTo($('.answers-list ul:eq(0)', thisQuestion));
    });    
 
    // Fix the item(s) to the end
    $.each(fixedEndCodes, function(i, code) {
      $('.answer-item[id$="X'+qID+code+'"]').appendTo($('.answers-list ul:eq(0)', thisQuestion));
    });    
 
    // Handle "Other"
    if(otherFixed == true &amp;&amp; $('#question'+qID+' input[type="text"]').length > 0) {
      var otherAnswer = $('#question'+qID+' input[type="text"]');
      var otherAnswerItem = $(otherAnswer ).closest('.answer-item');
      var otherAnswersList = $(otherAnswer ).closest('ul');
      $(otherAnswersList).append(otherAnswerItem);
    }
  });
</script>
