Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding the slider questions. Is there any way to modify the text? That is, when I insert the options, it only allows me to select from 1 to 5, but instead of displaying numbers, I'd like to customize it with some phrases. Is this possible?

Thank you all.

I found this in the group in case it helps anyone.

Still working.

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
 
  $(document).on('ready pjax:scriptcomplete',function(){
 
    // Identify this question
    var thisQuestion = $('#question{QID}');
 
    // Define the text strings
    var tipTexts = {
      1:  'Very good',
      2:  'Somewhat good',
      3:  'Neither good nor bad',
      4:  'Somewhat bad',
      5:  'Bad'
    };
 
    $('input:text', thisQuestion).on('slideEnabled',function(){ 
      var thisItem = $(this).closest('li');
 
      // Insert custom tooltip
      $('.tooltip-inner', thisItem).addClass('tooltip-inner-1 hidden');
      $('.tooltip', thisItem).append('<div class="tooltip-inner tooltip-inner-2">'+tipTexts[$(this).val()]+'</div>');
 
      // Listener on slider
      $(this).on('slide slideStop', function(event) {
        // Handle dynamic tooltip text
        $('.tooltip-inner-2', thisItem).text(tipTexts[$(this).val()]);
      });
    });
    });
</script>

Hi,
there are some options.

Here a few examples from my tutorial

 


There are more in the forum. Search for "SliderTicks"

But what exactly do you want to achieve?
As usual: Send a lss export of this question, explain how it is to look like.

In my opinion a slider questions makes only really sense if there is some kind of "continuum".

If there are fixed stops on the slider, radio buttons are probably the better choice.

1: 'Very good',
2: 'Somewhat good',
3: 'Neither good nor bad',
4: 'Somewhat bad',
5: 'Bad'

Like this example. There is no good reason to use a slider question for something like this, if not for "I like how it looks".

From a research and a usability point of view, I think a list radio or a Matrix question is a lot better, because it is easier to answer/click and has less issues.

Thanks, Joff, and Holch

Yes, it's precisely a "whim" for the "looks good" kind.

Since this is a survey aimed at a company's employees, the goal was to have good eyesight.

Here's my LSS in case it looks more dynamic.

When testing on mobile devices, the texts are cut off due to the screen size....
