    Can I calculate the 'Total' from Scale Ratings?

    Asked by hamboneZA on April 05, 2013 at 03:46 AM

    Hi Guys, 

    What a fantastic application you have here! Awesome! I have a quick question, consider the senario: I have 10 fields that use a scale rating from 1 to 5. Can I calculate the sum of these ratings on the form itself as a read-only field?

     

    Thanks very much!

    thanks scale rating

    Hi,

    Thanks for your great feedback, we appreciate it!

    That's not possible with the form builder however that can be achieved using your form source code and add extra scripts that calculates all the scale rating totals. Let us know the form URL in question so we can provide you the script you need for your form.

    I would suggest to add a total text box with your form as well so we can populate there the entire total of the scale rating fields. You can also make it readonly, just right click the text box field, select "Show Properties" then set Yes on Readonly. Here's how:

    We'll wait your reply. Thank you!
