Multiple Choice Grid and Checkbox Grid Fields
A selection-style question laid out as a table of rows and columns. Respondents can compare and pick options at a glance — often used for satisfaction surveys and ranking questions.
Multiple Choice Grid Field
- Freely add rows and columns.
- Click the dashed area below the table to add a row, and the dashed area on the right to add a column.
- Type the row and column titles directly inside the table.
- Use the six-dot handle next to a row or column title to reorder it or open its menu.
- Drag and drop to change the order of rows and columns.
- Click it to open the
Duplicate rowandDelete rowmenu (Duplicate columnandDelete columnfor columns).
- Use
Set option valuesat the bottom left to assign a value to each option. (e.g., set the first option to value 1) - Click the
...(more) button at the bottom right for these features:- Restrict duplicate columns: Prevent respondents from picking the same column more than once. This lets you design ranking-style questions such as 1st choice, 2nd choice, and so on.
Checkbox Grid Field
- Like the standard grid, you can add rows and columns and type their titles directly inside the table.
- You can also assign custom values to each option.
- The difference is that while a regular grid allows only one column per row, the checkbox grid lets respondents select any number of columns.
- Turn on
Stand-alone answerin a column menu to make that column — such as 'None of the above' — impossible to pick together with the others. When a respondent selects it, every other selection in that row is cleared.
Tip
Multiple choice grids are great for ranking or priority questions, while checkbox grids are useful for comparative or evaluative surveys that allow multiple answers.
