Number of selections (pick-list) calculated as a total?

Hi- I am trying to total up a number of selections from a pick-list. Example:

Which do you like?

- Vanilla

- Chocolate

- Strawberry

What pie do you like?

- Apple

- Pumpkin

I want the calculate a total, so if you select vanilla and chocolate and pumpkin, it would total as 3. Is this possible?

You can define calculation values as "1" for each option and get the sum of them with form calculation widget. Please look at these steps. 
1. Define calculation values as "1" for multiple choice fields. This is for one of them. 2. Add a form calculation widget to get the sum of the selected fields. After, make this calculation. The total field will show the number of selections. Please try this workaround. We are glad to help you here.

Hi-

I'm using the Image Picker widget so I don't see that option. Is there anyway to code it in there to be a similar function?

Unfortunately, since the Image Picker widget returns the URLs of the selections, there is no direct way to count them.

Thanks Alan. Is there a way to include images in a regular picklist, a workaround? 

It's possible to count the selected items in the "Image Picker" widget. Please check my demo form below.

You only need to add conditional logic for all possible combination of selection to your options.

You can clone my demo form to inspect and to know how it was done: How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL

Perfect, thank you! Is there a way to make this more simple, say if I have 70+ options? 

Unfortunately, that's the only workaround I think will work for your requirements. If you want to simplify it, you can follow my colleague's suggestion. Put the option through multiple-choice elements and assign a calculation value.
