Hello,

I have issues with the reset button. I want to assign the value 0 only when the reset button is clicked. In any other situation, i want an empty value. I know Limesurvey support that feature, but it doesn’t seam to work.

You will fin the necessary file to operate the survey.

Thank you.

So you really want to get a value of "0 = fully disagree" if the respondent resets the button = "I don't know / I don't want to answer"?
I do not understand this.

I think it is implemented correct.
Unless the respondent moves the handle (or resets the slider) the value is "empty".
If he moves the handle the value is stored, even if the respondent moves the handle to "0".

And, please answer the questions at the beginning. And DO NOT remove them.

My thinking is that if the slider initial value (slider_default) is set, clicking the reset button shoud revert to (and store) that value. If no default value is set, the reset button should store null.

- manual.limesurvey.org/Question_type_-_Mu....28slider_default.29

I want 0 = "I don't know / I don't want to answer"
1 thru 10 are the answer of the slider

The value 0 dosent store when the reset buton is press. Its set to empty

Yes, there is no "Don't know" in a slider question.
Either you leave it empty or there is a value.

And you set the scale from "0" to "10".
So "0" is a valid value, which the respondent can select
And furthermore: You try to misuse the "reset" button.
"Reset" means "Set back to the initial valies" not more, not less..

But there is an easy workaround.
In an following equation set the value of an empty slider to "0".
{Q1_a=if(is_empty(Q1_a),0,Q1_a)}
...

Or you may revise your question. Use an array.

Or you may use "tick marks". There are some examples in the forum.
Just an example: Read the red smiley as "DK/NA" and show an appropriate value under the scale 
 

I found a thread about it.
[url] forums.limesurvey.org/index.php/forum/ge...icht?start=12#216557 [/url]

A last word about it.

Could be like this
 

or like this
 

or maybe something else.

Thank you for your help! I would like to use the "tick marks". I like the first picture you share. Howevwer I decided to change the value 11 =  not applicable (NAP). I look in the link, copy/paste and modify the code. I have difficulty to understand it. I'll attached what i worked so far. Here is my code :

No, no, 
I won't create a survey, a group, a question and then copy/paste your script.

Please, provide the lss export of this question.

Joffm 

Sorry.

Here it is. Thank you again

So, what is your concern?
The misalignment of "10"?

Here I removed the second scale, though it is still included in the css part.

@Joffm : i ,need your email to hire you sometime …

Thank you very much for your time and effort! This is exactly what I'm looking for!

Have a nice day!

 i ,need your email to hire you sometime …

@Denis, you forgot three things:
1. The smiley 
2. My age, see my profile
3. 99% of the javascript solutions I show here are based on @Tony's scripts. My knowledge of javascript is very, very limited.
