Multiple Choice answers with branching per answer
This doesn't seem to be possible at the moment. I don't actually think that branching based upon multiple selections is feasible. What is actually required is conditional questions. So, the option of having a rule on a question that says - show this question if the following condition is true. e.g.
On question 9 have a rule that says only show this question if the respondent selected choice 5 on question 6 etc.
- I have been trying to research to solve the same. Q1 O1 + Q2 O1 should give me Q3/S2, Q1 O1 + Q2 O2 should give me Q4/S3 where Q is a question, O is Option of a question and S is a section.
Forms is like someone's pet project at Microsoft and is not really advanced. It is definitely clunky and hope there will be more advancements as most often we run into this above scenario. A combination of two questions decides further sets of questions.KumarHari007 we are needing to do the same thing.
Karen2021 in all the posts mentioning other platforms no-one has answered the problem of how they or Microsoft could possibly implement branching on multiple select options in a question. With 8 choices there are 40,320 possible branching combinations. I just don't think there is any way Forms will ever offer this level of complexity.
