Multiple choice questions in web form

P Robertson

Is it possible to create a question item where the user can select more than one answer - using the standard Shift or Ctrl keys - or some other way?

 

I'm setting up my first Smartsheet ...  Thanks.

This is something I would love to see Smartsheet add in, however as far as I can tell there really isn't a way to do this other than to create a column for each choice you want the user to be able to select (& then set-up each column as a check-box).

 

The issue with muliple-choice options based on a drop-down list for example, is that Smartsheet would have to architect a way for multiple data points to populate the sheet (a cell can only really have one data point/answer - not many).

 

Hope this helps and good luck!

Smartsheets has a good explanation on the "Tips from Support" help page.  Here is the link (it's item #3:

Hi all,

Good news! It's coming!

Hi everyone, 

I'm pleased to announce that the Multi Select Dropdown project is in development.

The functionality Robert Meisch mentioned above (dynamically populate a drop down list from a selected range in a sheet?) is in early stages of research and we're hoping to have that out this year.

Thank you for the passion, and thanks for the patience.

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic weekend!

Best,
