matrix select graphics improvement

  1. (Effort estimate 3/7 since you need images of a depressed and unpressed button) the multi-select input bubbles should be replaced by graphically pressing a button, like side by side buttons not side by side bubbles in a table.

    Here’s another option for this.

    This would allow us to have people enter “text” in a matrix, not just select a radio button or checkbox.

    Hey @Pie could you please share some example screenshots?

      sure, thanks for asking Julien! I suggested the side-by-side selectable buttons in a “table layout” many months ago and you provided the matrix buttons, but really what I was gong for was the typeform-style multi-select where you can have options in an array and the user picks one (or multiple), like this:

        Hey @Pierce Mooney isn’t it a bit like the scale input?

          Hey @Julien yes exactly. I googled “typeform buttons” and shared the first image which had their buttons side by side, while that one is numerical, other typeform questions have it with words in them “Are you looking for a new service?” then two buttons side by side “Yes” or “No” or “I’m thinking about it”. These buttons , exactly like how you made the scale module, should be an option for Multi-select!

    Hi Perse,

    Thanks for this suggestion—the visual feedback of a “pressed” vs “unpressed” button could definitely improve the matrix select experience and make it feel more interactive and intuitive. Noted on the effort estimate and your idea of using side-by-side buttons instead of bubbles in a table. Appreciate you sharing this—it’s a helpful perspective as we continue improving the UI!

    Best,
