Position Radio Buttons was created by lglobig
Hi there

I am fairly new to lime survey and have been looking through the forum but have been unable to find an answer that works.
I want to position the radio buttons (see image) to the right, so that they are displayed underneath the 5 boxes displayed on the right, rather than on the left. I have been using several alterations of this code by varying the margin in template editor, but without any luck.

.list-radio div.answers table {
margin: 0;
width: 100%;
}



I would be really grateful for any help on this.

Thanks!

Laura

Hi, Laura,
and your LimeSurvey version is...?

You talk about the "template editor". So I suppose your version is not 3.x.

In 3.x it was renamed to "theme editor".

In 3.x. and these settings:
<div style="float:right"><img alt="" src=" www.myServer.de/myFolder/Boot004_klein.jpg " />


<style type="text/css">
.ls-answers {
text-align: right;
}
</style>

you get this

It looks to me like you are trying to align them under an image that overflows the question container.

I think you will need to:

1) Limit the width of the image to 100%.

2) Position the answer elements absolutely relative to the image segments.

3) Define widths for the answer elements relative to the image segments.

I cannot provide any more details without knowing what the LimeSurvey version is and having access to the image.
Cheers,

Wouldn't it be better to cut the image into five elements and place them in the answeritem? If the screen estate is limited the alignment of one big image might looks confusing.

Oh, I didn't realize that the 5 answer options correspondent to the five parts of the image. (I am getting too old)

Couldn't you do it like this?



With question theme "image-select".

But of course, it depends on your version.

I'm not sure, but to me this looks like quiz. My answer to the unknown question would be 1 ;-)

The issue is that I want the two squares on the left and the the 5 squares on the right to all be aligned and there are a varying number of squares on the left, so sometimes there are 5 squares on the left plus 5 squares on the right (this makes the splitting up an issue I think). If I cannot get it to work otherwise I will definitely implement it this way. Thank you!

Apologies I should have mentioned that I have already sorted the container size image. But I am struggling to position the answer elements relative to the image segments. Would that require me to split up the image? I am using LimeSurvey version 3.14.3.
A sample image is attached.

Thanks for your help!

So just the second part
<style type="text/css">
.ls-answers {
text-align: right;
}
</style>

and then this change in the theme editor to 6.5
.radio-list li
{
display: block;
clear: both;
margin-right: 6.5rem;
}

Is kind of working. It's not ideal but such an improvement. Thanks so much!

If you want to position the radio absolutely relative to the image width, you could add something like this to the question source.

But, as Jelo points out, it will fall apart on smaller screens like phones as there simply is not enough horizontal room. You could use a different image and CSS media queries for that.

Code:
<style type="text/css">
  #question{QID} .ls-answers {
    margin: 0 0 10px 0;
  }
 
  #question{QID} .ls-answers > ul {
    display:block;
  }
 
  #question{QID} .answer-item {
    display:  block;
    position: absolute;
    width: auto;
    margin: -15px 0 0 -2%;
    left: 54.5%; 
  }
 
  #question{QID} .answer-item:nth-child(2) { left: 64.95%; }
  #question{QID} .answer-item:nth-child(3) { left: 75.4%; }
  #question{QID} .answer-item:nth-child(4) { left: 85.85%; }
  #question{QID} .answer-item:nth-child(5) { left: 96.3%; }
</style>
