I think :
sum(self) sum up all relevant option.

If you use array_filter it can work ?

No ?

Dede1989, what question types are you using?

Can you attach a small sample survey?

Cheers,

For my first question i'm using a multiple choice array. My second question, which uses the filter, is an array (numbers). My question validation for question 2 is "sum(self)==100". Maybe I can set all invisible options to a default value '0' ?

A working example is attached.

In this case, you use:

Code:

sum(self.sq_A.NAOK)

The reason this works is that sum(x,y,z) will only sum the visible values if you use the .NAOK suffix on each of x, y, and z (which is what self.sq_A.NAOK does). Without the .NAOK suffix, the sum will always be zero if any rows are invisible.

Here is a screen-shot:
