Hello, 

1) could anybody help me understand how can I control the number of subquestions (say I have SQ1:SQ20) displayed in an array text question (Q10) based on a previous numeric input question (Q09)?
If a respondent enters 6 in Q09, I would like only 6 subquestions (SQ1:SQ6) to be displayed in Q10, if a person enters 12, I would like 12 (SQ1:SQ12) to be displayed etc. I think it should be possible, I just cannot seem to find a tutorial for that... 
​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​2) Additionally I would like to know if it is possible to control manually (it is me who sets the conditions) which subquestions (SQ1:SQ50) will be displayed in a multiple choice question (Q06) based on a previous single choice question (Q05) answers?  Say first people have to choose their favorite author (Q05) an then they must pick all the books they have read by the author (Q06). I would like to have the titles of all the books by all the authors under one multiple choice question and display the choice of titles (for ex SQ34:SQ46) depending which author they chose in a previous question (Q05). Is it possible or do I have to create a separate question for every author?

Thank you in advance for you insights
Stella

HI;
why didb't you answer the questions that appeared when you opened this thread?

1. Use "subquestion relevance"
Obviously
Q10_SQ1 is displayed if Q9 is greater then 0: Q9>0, if 0 is a possible answer
Q10_SQ2 is displayed if Q9 is greater then 1: Q9>1
Q10_SQ3 is displayed if Q9 is greater then 2: Q9>2
...

2. Analog.

The books of one author are displayed if he was selected in Q5.
Q6_SQ1:  Q5==1
Q6_SQ2:  Q5==1
Q6_SQ3:  Q5==1
Q6_SQ4:  Q5==2
Q6_SQ5:  Q5==3
...

Always the best: Send a lss export of the relevant questions, to show your question/problem.

Thank you Joffm! 
I'll look into "subquestion relevance" thanks for the tip. I'm new to Limesurvey and struggle a bit to get my head around all the terminology and possibilities. English is not my first language neither... :D
