Can a Select multiple question populate consecutive repeats?

PaulSweeney3 — Tue, 07 Jul 2020 08:38:42 GMT

I was wondering if a select multiple answer can be used to populate a repeat section , i know i can constrain the repeats to the number of selected answers but i was also wondering if i could pre-populate the answers in the repeats as well. i thought that a combination of the functions selected-at and count may work but i keep getting dependency errors

so for example.

Question one

Repeat 1

Repeat 2

Repeat 3

I figured it out i was using the combination of the functions selected-at and count but in the wrong way. I had it inside my repeat which was causing the issue i believe, i moved it outside and set up a default answer in side my repeat to use as the count field and then i just use a minus one to account for the indexing of the select multiple question. Works a treat and the repeats are also constrained to the number of selections in the select multiple question so as i add a repeat the answer is populated as required.

selected-at(${Hazards_present},count(${default_1})-1)
