Re: [NADUG] QuestionFilter oCustom

The only ordering that works on question filters is normal, random, and rotate.

The asc, desc, and custom orderings only work with categories.  So for your question the only custom ordering you could do would be on defining how the rows are displayed

A work around is to change your four inner questions to 1 categorical grid with 4 iterations with one long question defined inside the loop.  Then apply the custom ordering to the grid iteration's categories. Although, I don't know how that will affect your displaying of them.

Subject: [NADUG] QuestionFilter oCustom

Trying to custom order columns in grid. I know this is a documented
bug by SPSS. But, I am wondering if anyone has found a perhaps
undocumented way to archive this. I am using mrStudio 4.0.

Metadata:
Q1_LOOP "Question text blah blah blah" loop
{
Row1 "Row 1",
Row2 "Row 2",
Row3 "Row 3",
Row4 "Row 4",
Row5 "Row 5"

} fields
(
Col_1 "Column 1" long [1 .. 10];

Col_2 "Column 2" long [1 .. 10];

Col_3 "Column 3" long [1 .. 10];

Col_4 "Column 4" long [1 .. 10];

) expand;

Routing:
Q1_LOOP[..]. QuestionOrder = OrderConstants. oCustom
Q1_LOOP[..]. QuestionFilter = "Col_3,Col_1, Col_2,Col_ 4"
Q1_LOOP.Ask( )
