==================
Hello,

I have a question with multiple choices which feeds a ranking (+ suggestions with a multiple short text question).
So far, the ranking question does not appear if there is no choice/suggestion made, which is what I want (array filter style = hidden).
If I make the ranking question mandatory and do not make any choice nor suggestion, when testing (survey not activated), I get the following error "One or more required questions have not been answered. You cannot proceed until these have been completed."
I would like that if the ranking does not show (there is nothing to rank if no choice/suggestion has been made, i.e. only the text question "Remarks" is answer or not answer are given), it is OK to go to the next question group.
I thought LimeSurvey would not stop if the mandatory question is hidden.

The LSS is attached.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
my opinion about this:
Q13 is not really hidden; there is only "nothing displayed" because of the array filter.
This you see if you display "Question by question"
You will see an empty page but with navigation.

If you enter a real condition - that Q13 is only displayed if there is something to display - everything is fine.
Condition could be:
sum(count(that.Q10.NAOK),count(that.Q11.NAOK))>0
