    Hello,


    I am trying to create a set of 4 radio buttons that only allow you to select two options. In other words, Assume I have option 1 , option 2, option 3, option 4 and each of those options have a agree or disagree radio button option.

    If I use a matrix I can do this easily.. however, with the matrix I can choose to Agree or disagree with each of the 4 options. What I want to do is limit it so you can only select 2 options of the 4 and only one agree and one disagrees.

    An example of this functionaly can be seen on this webpage.

    is there a way to mimic this?


    thanks

    mike

    Hi Mike,


    With the Input Table field you can create multiple questions within the same field, and select how the answers will be written. You can configure two single-choice options for Agree and Disagree:

    Here is our guide on how to configure the fields:

    Could you take a look if the Input Table would be suitable for your needs?

    this does not really answer my question. At least I can't see how it does
    I don't need multiple types of columns what I need is to be able to limit the number of selected options to only two. out of the 4 and ensure that one selection is in column 1 and one selection is in column 2.
    this is what I am trying to achieve.

    Hello there,


    We checked the website you shared and Laura suggested it's the closest option we have. If you want, we can share your suggestion as a missing feature with our back-end team. Jotform reviews all feature requests we get and we spend a lot of time researching and working on new features, but at the moment, I don't have any details on if, or when, this will be released as we don't have a public road map. Whenever we do release new features, we'll announce them to all interested customers. We appreciate your interest and input!
