Grid Theme in Survey123 Web App

[JaredPilbeam2]

Note:

The theme-grid appearance value is not supported by the Survey123 web app.

I found this out the hard way after putting together a fairly large survey with Survey123 Connect. It looked perfectly fine in Connect. But, when I published to the web the theme-grid wasn't supported and the survey didn't look so pretty. I guess it's meant for a mobile device. Is there a way I can do a grid that works with the web app? I'm currently researching Pages to see whether it supports a grid theme.

Suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hi @JaredPilbeam2,

As per documentation here: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/survey123/desktop/create-surveys/xlsformsappearance.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_8BFD...

And this blog post: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-blog/survey123-tricks-of-the-trade-groups-grids-and/b...

And you pointed out above, the theme-grid appearance value is currently not supported by the Survey123 web app.

The web app does support groups and pages, which helps organise your survey questions and display them in a neater layout, so if you like you can style your survey using these configurations, just not theme-grid appearance, it will be ignored.

Regards,

Phil.

Thanks Phil,

Ok, thanks for the links. Those are the ones I've been referencing all along. At least I'm not missing anything. I went ahead with the pages layout.

@Anonymous User, Is the theme-grid appearance in the Survey123 web app on the roadmap for a future release?

Hi @MichelleWilliamson,

We have an enhancement in our backlog to support theme-grid appearance in the Survey123 web app, however it is not on the near term roadmap. We will keep you updated when we have more solid plans of when this may be supported.

Regards,

Phil.

@Anonymous User Can we bump that up as a need - seems to be a bigger gap now that Experience Builder is in the mix.

Is there any voting options?

Hi @PVServicesAdmin,

Yes you can use the ArcGIS Survey123 Ideas page to vote on ideas other have created. There is already an existing one for grid theme support in the web app:
