    When you have made a question. You can click on the three dots in the upper right corner. There you have the option Branching.

I did get it working but it would be nice if when branching past questions that it would just skip them and not show them at all.  for example if I have a 5 questions and depending on the answer to question 1 you either go to question 2 or question 5, it would be nice if it just didn't show questions 2,3,4 if you select the option that takes you to question 5.  There almost needs a way to add sections of the form that you can decide to branch to depending on answers.

 

Thanks for your help.  i will continue to play with this feature

Rick - it shouldn't show Q2,3,4 and should show only Q 5. Is your Q 1 a single choice question or of another type? can you share your form url and the branching view with me?

    My form and branching doesn't work. I can do the branching to 2 questions, however, I have 5 choices. Cannot fix in any way. 

    Any ideas?

      It looks like a bug, could you provide more detail?
