Magnetic Boards

A Magnetic Board is another way to represent a grid. Participants answer questions by dragging magnets onto a board.

Note: This question type is not supported for mobile surveys. Instead, for mobile surveys, use a mobile-supported question type.

Magnetic Boards can be single choice or multi choice questions. Although the two question types have similar names they behave quite differently and are used for different research purposes.

Magnetic boards are organized in a two column layout.

Magnets are slightly transparent and can contain text, images, or both. For more information about adding images, see Images: Best practices.
