Choice question display

Hi, I am putting together a form with a "Region" choice question and I am wondering two things:

 

1. If, for example Scotland is chosen, can the form default to show all the locations within Scotland

 

and 

 

2. If the above isn't possible, I have 71 locations to list, can they be listed side by side (3x3 or 4x4) to save people scrolling all the way through a list of 71 - some users will be doing this on their mobile devices and I know will get fed up!!

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi _sarah ,

    Yes, you can easily do that using branching.

    Set up a secondary question with options for each location in a region.

    Copy that question as many times as you have different regions

    Amend the list of options to be relevant to each of the different regions

    Use branching from the Region question to go to the appropriate location question

    Use branching from the location question to by pass all the rest of the locations and jump on to the next question.

    Much easier to do than explain but please ask if you get stuck.

    Guy

      Thank you Guy_Boswell 

       

      I have tried branching prior to posting here, but there seems to be a part missing as it doesn't jump to any other questions. I will have another look and shout if I get stuck - thanks again!
