To change the layout of individual checkboxes and radio buttons:

Create a Likert Scale or Matrix Layout

  1. Insert a radio button or checkbox field into your form.

  6. In order to add additional rows, click on the original row, click on options and choose copy.  This will add an additional row to your matrix.

Note: When using a matrix, it will split if the labels of the choices are not the same. Likewise, the matrix will consolidate if the labels are made to match.  Additionally, a Matrix Layout is different than both a Grid Layout (see below) and a Multi-Column Layout (see below as well)
