Curious of your thoughts on a ...Hi there Dimitiri,<br /><br />Curious of your thoughts on a situation. I have a form that currently uses a tabular form, which is no longer available as it is a legacy item in Apex. This is a form that has about 50 questions and we use radio buttons. The benefit is that when completing the form, you only have to click once to make a selection.<br /><br />In looking at creating a second, similar page, I see that the interactive grid is the next best option as an alternative. The problem though, is that when selecting radio buttons, you have to click twice to choose an option, doubling the time required to complete the task.<br /><br />Do you know of a way to show multiple radio buttons in the interactive grid vs clicking to select and then choosing one? Or could you recommend an alternative?<br /><br />My concern also is that in future updates, some legacy options will be removed.<br /><br />Thank you!Emily Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21122514.post-1140307620878924202020-09-14T23:03:26.831+02:002020-09-14T23:03:26.831+02:00Hi John,

Also no null value. <br /><br />Going forward you may be interested in some of the upcoming changes to the item API for this and other plugins.John Snydershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02916170627894187588noreply@blogger.com
