Maybe you could try out the approach as outlined in the post discussed previously:

Drop down titles

Hi @Charly, Welcome to the community! You could do the same as outlined below. If you are using the form builder user interface: [Image 0] If you are using the xlsform: In the survey tab of your xlsform: [Image 1] In the choices tab of your xlsform: [Image 2] Data entry screen as seen in Enketo: [Image 3] Reference xlsform: Minimal.xlsx (10.9 KB) Have a great day!

Thank you for your response. Kindly note that the idea behind this is to limit the number of LGAs to b shown while having the full list on the “choice” sheet.

See attached file. for further understanding.

Using your shared file as an instance, When a user select "what is your favourite animal? " , Only Animal 1, Animal 2 and Animal 3 is shown while having other animal 4, 5 etc on the choice list.

Thanks.

Hi,
Unfortunately what you are asking for

@caslas

Kindly note that the idea behind this is to limit the number of LGAs to b shown while having the full list on the “choice” sheet.

Cannot be done without some additional clarification on the order/criteria of showing some the lgas. In essence unless you are using a system such as cascade select, where you will require a pre-grouping categorization before you get to lga to allow for the cascade effect to work. I would thus request that you provide that kind of information to enabling such a grouping that will achieve what you want.

In the meantime, what @Kal_Lam had proposed achieves the partial showing of the list using the minimal appearance list.
