hiding previous sub question if blank was created by Carolyn2017
I have a multiple text question Q9, with 6 subquestions Q9_1, Q9_2..Q9_6. I am using the responses in a couple of questions that follow, in a radio and a dual array. I can get them to show, in the following questions using Q9_1.valueNAOK, in each of the following subquestions, and by specifying in the relevance on the side of the subquestion for Q22. but if someone does not put answers in each of the 6 subquestions in Q9, say they only have 2 answers, how do I hide those subquestions rows in Q22, they come up blank.
Would appreciate any help.

I just tried using {!is_empty(Q9_1)} in the relevance for that subquestion, to hide the previous response in Q9_1 when it is blank, but it does not work. Any advice.

Hi,
nearly everything is fine.
BUT: Did you really use the curly brackets in the subquestion relevance {!is_empty(Q9_1)}?
This is a plain equation; so remove them.

@Denis,
I wanted to mention the use of QCode.value, too,
but then I saw the explanation in the manual:
Qcode.value:
the assessment value for the question if it is relevant (otherwise blank), or the text value if it is not a coded question
So, this may be misleading.

valueNAOK here : then can return 0 for single answer
«or the text value if it is not a coded question» unsure i think it's NAOK only for text question type, but if you want text : .shown is the best
.value must be used with care and know what you do an need.

Yes, I know that.
But others - like Carolyn - may be confused.

Of course,
in my opinion she was confused because of this phrase in the manual.

Thanks so much it works now, appreciate you advice.Yes I did have brackets in there.... I think you assume that everyone who is using this software has an IT background. I'm a research fellow in psychology and for most surveys you can get by without knowing the conventions you have learnt. Once upon a time universities supplied the experts to help us poor RF's to do this, now we must do for ourselves. thanks
