It is much simpler: even typing in 0 for relevance for a column does not work in the array by column question.

It never work … the issue are "relevance are shown" .

To have a real column relevance : we must construct a relevance:on/off for column with javascript :)

Denis: do you mean that this never has worked before?

What is the use of the relevance field in this question type then? Showing the relevance field actually "promises" that relevances work for columns...

Do you know a resource that shows how this can be done. My knowledge is Javascript is low... ;-(

Denis: do you mean that this never has worked before?

Yes : filter by columns was never added in Expression manager

What is the use of the relevance field in this question type then?

It's an issue

Demo on 3LTS : https://demo.sondages.pro/655577#

See TABCOL

Must be improved to be used as question settings (here : apply on whole survey …)

Is this blocking or should it be something else?

Not blocking, but misleading. Cost me several hours to detect and make a bug report. While this was already known.

I guess the easiest thing to do is not show relevance fields and perhaps a message that relevance on column level does not work according to bug number such and so. That would be a bummer to the user, but more clear than showing relevance fields that do nothing....

partial_block, and clearly : it's a new issue , we don't have filter on array by column before.

Temporary solution: take away the relevance field at the columns. It promises something that is not there.

Good solution: make it work....

Good solution: make it work....

This need a total rewriting of all js done by Expression Manager …
Even my plugin don't hide dynamically the columns …

The your temporary solution are a long solution …

I agree that it should either be hidden or fixed. If fixed is hard, let's hide relevance equation for this question type for subquestions.

if fixed is hard,

lol … hidding column via javascript ? we have tons of issue with this feature.

BTW: I have used Denis'solution, this worked in this case.

Same issue? https://bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=16610 "16610: Conditionals with Array Dual Scale not working?"

16610: Conditionals with Array Dual Scale not working?

No , not related , maybe issue with condition and number

I see two solutions here:

• Either introduce a question attribute that hides the relevance column in the subquestion editor for this question type (and other question types that don't use the relevance properly)

OR

• Fix this issue for this question type

If the 2nd option takes too much time I would be satisifed to have the first one. However, the current state is not optimal.

About the «Fix this issue for this question type»

The difficulty is to totally rework the Expression Manager javascript system …
Hiding a line (in jquery) : $("tr").hide();
Hiding a columns : https://gitlab.com/SondagesPro/QuestionSettingsType/hideEmptyColumn/-/blob/master/assets/hideemptycolumn.js#L18-23 (+ specific css for such class)
(set width:0 to col didn't work).

Several approaches here:

I see some td {display:none) :it don't really work …
