How do you add a text field to a multiple choice answer?

Best answer by Liz

@orders @ronjaannette To answer both of your questions, it isn’t possible to add a text field to the multiple choice question, but you could use a multi question page and add both a multiple choice question and a short text field so they’re all grouped in the same area.

Hi @orders Thanks for reaching out! Are you trying to add a field in addition to the multiple choice options? Or a fill-in-the blank option within the multiple choice options?

Hey @orders how’s it going? Hopefully you were able to put everything together in your typeform but let us know if you still need help with this or anything else 😊

Dear Community,
I would like to ask a question where there are several options for the prescribed answer, but for the answer Other there should be a text field where I can add Other. How can I set this? As an example: What have you learned?
A) Electronics technician
B) Mechatronics engineer
C) Other
At C there should be a text field where I can enter what I have learned.
Can someone help me?
