Hi Kal_Lam,
thanks for reaching out. This email got me curious. I would like to see this feature integrated into Kobotoolbox as it would greatly expand the usage possibilities allowing better-interconnected forms. That said, I’m unsure how the current approach for sponsoring a feature works. I, for example, wouldn’t be able to be the sole economic contributor with my graduate student salary. Nonetheless, I see that you have a donation system running. I would be interested to know if there are plans to integrate this into some Kickstarter for the feature so that community members could contribute donations towards the development of a feature. In this way, for example, the development of a feature could start if and when the desired funding level is reached. I would be down to contribute with an approach such as this. I think other interested members of the community would support it. Would it be sensible to open a discussion in the forums about approaches to sponsoring features?
Cheers,
Fritz Pichardo

The current documentation page for (Dynamic Data Attachments shows how to use it similar to how you would use the pulldata() function (e.g., dynamically selecting an answer from a choice list based…
You could also feel free to reach us back if you wish to sponsor this feature.
