We have a number of questions that are structured as multiple choice with an "Other" open text box. We would like to add a list of autocomplete options for the most popular "Other" choices to help normalize the data we're collecting. We have access to Qualtrics' Autocomplete functionality in the Text Entry question type, but I don't see a way to add it to the Text Entry boxes in Multiple Choice questions. Am I missing something? Is there a workaround for this?
Question example:
In which city do you work? (1) MajorCity1 (2) MajorCity2 (3) Other City: ___________ <-- Would have autocomplete list of common other cities and also allow free text entry if no match.
Thanks in advance!

You can either add the autocomplete options from Qualtrics, you'll have to check with your brand admin if you have subscribed to it, or you could use an external JS library. Search the forum for Select2, there are a few posts that discuss implementing it.
