random group names does not work for my questions was created by rakittam
Dear community,
I have a survey where I need to have random question group order whereas some question groups have random question order in them. The random group order feature works perfectly fine for me, but I struggle to make the random question order in the groups.
In the attachement you see two questions of a question group that should appear for each participant in a random order on the same page. I put them in the same random question group name (i.e. in the advanced settings: logic -> random group name) but if I test the survey the feature does not work.
Is this an error or are I the error?
(Search did not help, manual did not help, testing stuff did not help, do you help?)

Well, you didn't mention your version of LS, so here I showed in 3.22.2
First rotation
Second rotation
As you know about randomization the sequence is never 1,2,1,2,1,2, but sometimes 1,1,1,1,1,2,2,1,1,2,2,2,1,2

Thank you for your contribution Joffm!
Is it possible that you cannot combine random group orders while having random question orders in some groups?
(I am using question group by question group setting.)
I am sorry, my version is 3.22.5.Joffm wrote: Well, you didn't mention your version of LS, so here I showed in 3.22.2
I am aware of the random walk pattern. Tested it so many times that I would rather have won the lottery then that I had a 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1 streak.Joffm wrote: Second rotation

I was able to solve it. It works now. Thank you for your concerns!
What I did:
Created new survey and used the copy function. Reset all my desired options and it works now.
