How to display a table

Alternatively, you can set a maximum number of rows on your table by finding the markers on the template under the first table markers

alternative table

The tables will  display the answers on your output format in a list. You can customize your table using the markers to display in the layout you prefer.

Example of a table

On this form, the table has a ‘Check Box List’ ‘Text’ ‘Number’ and ‘Radio List’ elements on it. The submission has 5 rows.

On the first table you can put a table on your template and copy the markers into the positions you would like them to display.

You need to make sure the table markers ${element-??????} and ${/element-??????} are around the row markers so your table displays and repeats on your download.

When you upload this template into Array, your table will  download the submission in this way

Example of the alternative table

On the alternative table, you can set the rows up by taking each marker and putting them in the space you want them to display.

If you need more rows in your table, you'll need to add the number of your row to the end of the marker. The 'Test Table Check Box List' marker is ${element-1297748}, adding a number into this can show which row it will need to show from your submission. 

If you want it from row 6, you'll need to put -6 into the marker 

${element-1297748-6}

If you want it from row 20, you'll need to put -20 into the marker 

${element-1297748-20}
