This tutorial shows how to make a standard grid question interactive and more engaging, by transforming it into a Drag and Drop question for ranking or categorising.

You can convert single response Grid First questions to a Drag and Drop question in Snap. There are 2 types of drag and drop styles:

  • Ranking allows you to rank the answer choices in the grid
  • Categorise allows you to Categorise answer choices in different boxes in the grid

Possibilities include:

  • Ranking answer choices in order of most favourite or most important
  • Categorising answer choices by how often they are purchased or visited

Single response questions can be styled as Drag and Drop in electronic editions of the questionnaire, such as Snap Online, web, tablet, smartphone.

Step 1: Add a Grid First question to your questionnaire

This section describes adding the single-response Grid First question to your questionnaire.

  1. Open your survey in Snap.
  2. Open the Questionnaire window if it is not already open.
  3. Add a new Grid First question.
Grid First question set to Single response
  1. Enter your question text (for example, Put the fruit in order of most favourite?).
  2. Press Tab on your keyboard and enter your code labels (for example, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, pressing Tab to move through each code position).
  3. Press the down arrow key to enter your first Grid label (for example, Apples).
  4. Press Tab to continue entering your Grid labels (for example, Grapes, Oranges and Peaches).

Please note that you need to create the same number of grid code labels as the number of ranks or categories that you need, before converting the grid to a drag and drop question.

Step 2: Change the question style to a Drag and Drop

You convert your question to a Drag and Drop using the Show toolbar topic menu.

  1. Select the Grid First question.
  2. Choose the Show topic and select As Drag and Drop, and then click the Show checkbox. The Drag and Drop defaults to Categorize; select Rank. The question layout changes to a Source Panel on the left and a Target Panel on the right.

  1. Select Options if you wish to edit the background colours of the panels.
Drag and drop options
  1. To preview the Drag and Drop, select File | Publish to display the Publish Questionnaire dialog. The Output Method defaults to Preview Only. Click Publish. The preview will open a new window and display the question as it would appear in a web browser.

Alternatively, if you wish to create a Drag and Drop question for the purpose of categorising answer choices in different boxes (for example, how often items are purchased), you will need to change the default setting drop down of Rank to Categorize (See Step 2, point 2 above).

When the questionnaire is previewed, the Drag and Drop question will be displayed as below:

When you create an analysis table in Snap the table columns are normally ordered according to the variables in the analysis definition. You can sort columns in forward and reverse order by the values of Analysis Label, Analysis Base and Summary Statistics.

This means that you can know that the first column of a sorted table will have (for example) the lowest mean value.

You can access the contents of any table cell or label, so you can dynamically access the appropriate data for whatever aspect has the lowest mean value and use that data in your report. You can also insert the text from the column label in your report.

The example below shows how to use the data from a ranked column in a report Information instruction to add dynamic text to your report.

It uses

  • A table ordered by the mean percentage with the highest scores in the first column and the lowest score in the seventh column. Please note that this topic contains no information on how to create this table.
  • An Information instruction which references table cells and labels from the first and seventh column
  1. Set up the ratings table definition and add the Mean to the summary statistics (you will need to ensure that the mean is scored if you are analyzing coded questions).
  2. Set the ordering to be by the mean.
Set the order of a ranked table
  1. Click Apply to display the table.

  1. Open the report that you wish to add the dynamic information to.
  2. Create an Information instruction.
  3. Add any fixed text. Click Insert and select Cell Value field… from the drop-down list.
  4. Enter the table name and cell or label reference that you wish to insert. The example below shows references to the cells and labels highlighted in the table T4 shown above (T4 C1 Label, T4R1C1, T4 C7 Label and T4R1C7).
Insert cell values into an Information report instruction
  1. Click OK to save your instruction.

When the report is generated, the table labels and cell values will be dynamically inserted into the report
