Columns Across, not Down was created by penguintrax
I have a radio button question, but would like the answers displayed in columns with the data in order going across, not down. Is there a way to do this other than rearranging the order of the questions?
Thank you.
Thank you.

EM Variables => bit.ly/1TKQyNu | EM Roadmap => bit.ly/1UTrOB4
Last Releases => 2.6x.x goo.gl/ztWfIV | 2.06/2.6.x => bit.ly/1Qv44A1
Demo Surveys => goo.gl/HuR6Xe (already included in /docs/demosurveys)

You will find a "
display colums
" attribute in the advanced settings

I was under the impression that the Display Columns setting only controlled how many columns, not the order in which the answers were displayed.
My answers are numbered, for example, 1-9.
I would like the first row to be answers 1, 2, 3.
As it stands right now in a 3-column layout, the first row are answers 1, 4, 7
I can only make the page show the 'across' order, if I rearrange the answers in the table grid.
If I add more answers, I have to rearrange things all over again.
Does that make sense?

Best is to set 'column_style' => 'ul' in your config :

There is no difference between list-items and paragraphs...
For me it's quiet logical; Reading a (online or paper) journal you have to read whole column #1 first, before reading column #2. Same behaviour with CSS3 column-count property

And how should this be sorted when the survey is on a mobile phone? Or is that a non-issue in your project?
