Can a checklist have multiple styles of formatting?

    I am trying to create a checklist for the facility.  On one of my "exterior light" forms, I was wondering if I could have the first two columns as radio or check buttons and the next one as a comment box?

    The reason I for this is I would like to have all the lights and locations listed on the left like a normal checklist.  Then I would like the next two columns to be "Working" or "Need Replacing".  My only problem is, I would like a third column with a text box, allowing me to explain what is wrong if the "Need Replacing" box is checked.  I know you can add a text box at the bottom but I would rather have the text associated with the problem on the same line so there is no confusion.

    As of right now I have my whole checklist in a text box format so that each line requires typing "good" or "bad".  Does anyone know if I can do part checklist and part text box in the same section?

     

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to have multiple input options using matrix tool. As a workaround, you may try using the native checkboxes/radiobuttons allowing other option for each question.

    Here is the custom CSS code injected to the JotForm to align the text box with radio buttons.

    #cid_33 > div > span.form-radio-item,

    #cid_30 > div > span.form-radio-item,

    #cid_31 > div > span.form-radio-item,

    #cid_32 > div > span.form-radio-item{

    clear:none !important;

    }

    The ids can be taken from taken from the website inspector.
