Hi

I have a single 0 - 10 array for NPS.
I'd like to dispolay the question text above the array instead of on the left side like in the attachment.

Is this possible?

Actually the question text in an array question IS displayed on top, just like for all other question types. I guess what you want is to display the subquestion text on the top.

I think you are using the wrong question type. If you only have one subquestion, you should should use the question type List (radio) with 10 columns instead. For this question type there is only the question text and no subquestion text.

Or you still use the array question, but do not use the subquestion text, only the question text.

Hi

thanks for the quick reply.
When I use "List", the radio buttons are arranged vertical instead of horizontal which looks kind of awkward.

When I remove the SQ Text and just use the question text as suggested in the array, the field for the SQ Text is empty now, but still quite "big",, which also results in looking awkward.

Just as I said, you can arrange the list radio type in columns, just have a look at the "Display" settings. But I checked and it did not look very good, seems like the line breaks at around 5 items and the labels are put next to the radio button and not above.

However, this leaves you still with the array type question. Also in the advanced settings bar to the right under "Display" you can set the subquestion width. Set this to "0" and it should just be fine.

In general, I would highly recommend to read through the question type section in the manual. It is quite good and will give you a good idea about the different options with each question.
