Hello everyone.

In the post www.limesurvey.org/es/component/kunena/d...ayout?start=10#58443 , tpartner said: "You cannot change the size of radio button (or checkbooxes) with CSS".

But, is there any way to change the size of the all default radio-button (in list-radio, list-radio-flexible, yes-no,... etc.) into the core of limesurvey or template, without using third-party javascript? How does it work in the core of limesurvey?

How can I increase the size of all default radio-button?


Larger radio-buttons control would be good for example for small screens or to make it more accessible from mobile devices...

Best regards.

Note: I'm using last version of LimeSurvey (limesurvey205plus-build140811) and copy of Basic template. Thank you very much in advance.

I say again: You cannot change the size of radio button or checkbooxes with CSS.

You will need to use a JavaScript plugin to insert alternate buttons.

There are many such plugins available, none of which I endorse.

The only real solution for larger radio button and checkbox elements is overlaying them with custom images and coding special JavaScript for this.

Such larger elements make sense when using smaller devices like iPhone/smartphone or iPad/tablets. You can download such smartphone/tablet optimized templates at www.limesurvey-templates.com :

1. iPhone/smartphone template: www.limesurvey-templates.com/limesurvey-...hone-tuned-p-41.html

2. iPad/tablet template: www.limesurvey-templates.com/limesurvey-...tuned-blue-p-48.html

There is a new mobile optimized template available at the Limesurvey Template Shop which is called "Blue Circle Mobile[/url]" and also makes use of images for imitating larger radio buttons and checkboxes:
