Block Field Conditions

Post by Iulian »

Hello,

Does anyone know of a way to execute the ASK IF conditions in all the sub-fields when a block is loaded?

On Mobile device when multiple fields are presented on the same screen the ASK IF conditions are run up to the first field where the result is True then the rest are ignored. This hides the first fields, for example, but leaves the rest on the screen despite the condition for some fields being False.

Attached is a quick example that can be analyzed.

Appreciate if anyone can share a solution.

Best regards,
Iulian

The current behavior for the block and its fields are as intended. Your options are either to remove the fields from the block or set the fields that are not selected to protected.

Thank you, Savy.

Our aim is to hide the fields from the screen completely because even in protected mode they confuse the interviewers especially in long lists. Attached below is a view from the tablet of the actual implementation.

We've explored clearing out the question text on top of protecting the fields but that still does not provide a clean look. Maybe you can suggest some other workarounds?

Unfortunately, there is no other workaround. I understand why this is confusing. I would not use block in this case. We will address this use case in a future version.
