I have something lengthy EmbeddedData strings, i.e. ${q://QID194%232/ChoiceTextEntryValue/1/1}, that are affecting my column sizes in Matrix Tables and I'd like to know if there's a way to shorten these strings or, at the very least, adjust the columns so they don't look so aesthetically horrid.
Scenario: I have a Matrix Table with 8 statements (Plan 1 through Plan
, first column is open text column called "Plan Name" (attachment: Benefits - Plan Name). The survey taker will input a plan name for each plan they have and these plan names carry through to multiple questions further down in the survey. For instance, the very next question is another Matrix table where the statements are these 8 strings, carrying down the responder's answer(s) as the statement(s) (Attachment: Benefits - Plan Name EmbData).Here's where the problem comes in. In one table, I need to use the plan names from the first table as Column Titles in a Matrix Table and because the string is so long, it makes my simple table very wide with a scollbar I want to avoid (Attachment: Benefits - Long EmbData strings). Does anyone know a way around this problem or a workaround? I could user JavaScript to adjust the column headers, but I hate to do the dev work if there's a simpler solution. Thank you, all!
