Display an item according to the number of answers previously selected

Sometimes it might be necessary to display an item according to the number of answers previously selected in a multiple choice question.

Instructions with Filter Editor #

Click on the “Logic Conditions” button (theicon) of the item you want to filter.

Alternatively, you can click on “Code Editor” and enter the following syntax:

if(CountCode (Question Code) == Number of selected options)

Instructions with IdCode #

If you wish to set the filter directly from IdCode, you can do so by entering the following syntax next to the item you wish to filter:

/F “if(CountCode(Question Code) == Number of selected options)

You can set the number of options to be checked in this case as well.

Example #

In question “Q1”, I ask which product(s) from a specific brand the respondent would purchase. I want page “P2” to be displayed only if I select a single option in question “Q1”.

In the filter button on page “P2”, I will need to set the following filter:

if(CountCode(Q1) == 1)

Here’s the complete IdCode:

/page P1
Q1 ->M
 Which product(s) from Brand X would you like to buy first?
1 Item 1
2 Item 2
3 Item 3
4 Item 4
5 Item 5
6 Item 6
/page P2 /F "if(CountCode(Q1) == 1)"
Q2
Would you consider buying any other products of the same brand?
1 Item 1 /F "if(Q1!=1)"
2 Item 2 /F "if(Q1!=2)"
3 Item 3 /F "if(Q1!=3)"
4 Item 4 /F "if(Q1!=4)"
5 Item 5 /F "if(Q1!=5)"
6 Item 6 /F "if(Q1!=6)"
