Statistics export with "other" answer was created by lukasso
Hi, I'd like to post a question about statistics export.
I have a single answer question with "other" allowed in my survey (radio button with "other"). But when I want to separate those "others" in statistics export, they are not included in the list of options to select from. See the attached png. I'd really need those "other" separated for my statistics - to be precise, I need to to select here all the fields except one (but including the others). Like this, the answers of those "others" are being ignored and the sum of answers doesn't add up to a total nr. of answers.

Any idea how to add to the field (see the attachement) the "other" option?

Thank you very much.
Lukas

You can't filter via the other, because it is an open ended questions. But you can click on th elittle speach bubble after the question text and it should show you the answers given to the "other" text, if I am not mistaken.

I‘m not OK with you here.

In a single choice question : other are specific, and in DB they have value -oth-, then we can add it in filter.

To filter with the content of the other field is not wanted.

But when I want to separate those "others" in statistics export,


So Denis is correct.

But is it a bug or a feature request?
