Hi all, first post here.
1. What is the problem? Be very detailed.
I'm confused about how repeating questions
https://docs.getodk.org/form-logic/#repeating-questions
work in regard of the "do not add" / "add" dialog that shows after the user finishes to answer a set/group of repeating questions.
In concrete what is my doubt:
I expect that (and I would like to know if I'm wrong) is that if I define a way to control the number of repeating questions
https://docs.getodk.org/form-logic/#controlling-the-number-of-repetitions
this dialog should not show, but it seems I can't find a way of get rid of it.
In the above doc page there is a phrase that seems to confirm my expectations: "If the enumerator won't know how many repetitions are needed ahead of time, you can still avoid the "Add new group?" dialog by using the answer to a question to decide whether another repeat instance should be added".
That dialog does not makes sense to me when the number of repetitions is controlled (fixed or dynamic). Even in a simple case where the number is fixed, say 2, then after the second repetition the dialog shows anyway allowing the user to enter a third, fourth... set of answers, beating the logic of the functionality(?). Moreover the dialog shows also in between repetitions... but why if I already configured the form for a fixed (or variable, but well defined within the form) number of repetitions?
2. What app or server are you using and on what device and operating system? Include version numbers.
I'm using the latest version of Collect, but a slightly old version of Aggregate on a Linux Server, not sure if this can be a factor in my problem.
I would appreciate any clarification.
regards
