Rotation in attribute was created by CharlieTang
Hi all,
I would like to do the rotation for array (numbers) type.
e.g.
case 1
Brand 5
Brand 1
Brand 2
Brand 3
Brand 4
case 2
Brand 4
Brand 5
Brand 1
Brand 2
Brand 3
How can I do this? Thank you very much!

Volunteers are not paid.
Not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless

Hi,
if you talk about "rotation" it is really:
1. 1-2-3-4-5
2. 2-3-4-5-1
3. 3-4-5-1-2
4. 4-5-1-2-3
5. 5-1-2-3-4
Well, this is not possible in LS.
The only thing you can do is a built-in randomization of the items.
But, if there are really only five items,
create five questions with the five different rotations, and select one of them by a random number.

I am not sure if I get this wrong, but that very much looks like randomizing answer options or sub questions, which is a standard feature.

Therefore I asked.
What I showed is a rotation.
The order is always the same (like a clock) but with different starting point.

Well, in some languages "rotation" is basically randomization. In Portuguese they generally call it "rotação". Which is why I am asking. But chances are very high that OP actually wants to randomize the answer options or subquestions. But let's see what the answer will be.
