How can one have a control or element in multiple groups?

Posted on by 4

I have an app that has about 30 questions I need to ask, but based on a selection criteria (location) I only need to show specific questions.  Let's say that there are about 8 subsets of questions based on about 12 different locations (some locations have the same question lists).  Is this possible to do without using a bunch of conditional statements on each question?  It appears a control can only go in one group.

    If your Question List (or table) details the 30 questions, and has a Location column (allowing multi-select), then you can use the current/active/selected Location to filter your Question List.  For example, if using a Gallery to display the questions, and a dropdown to select Location,  set the Items to Filter(QuestionList,dropdown.Selected.Value in Location.Value)

    That's a great point, and were I building this from scratch I would probably implement it in that manner. However, in this case I have one list that contains all the questions and some other data that already exists and can't add a location attribute to the questions.  This may have to be started from scratch with multiple lists.
