Pipe only selected elements from a select_multiple within a repeat

Support
1

I am using surveyCTO for building a questionnaire.

In my survey, first question is select_multiple. Based on the selection
here, I run a REPEAT loop for those many number of time. This works fine.
Within the loop, I have two questions: first question is select_multiple
and the second question has to show only the options that were selected in
prior question. This works fine for first iteration but fails at second
iteration. Error "This field is repeated. You may need to use
indexed_repeat() function to specify which value you want"

Enclosed is the sample file.

Thanks a lot for your help everybody.

Warm Regards,
Saurabh

Saurabh,

Unfortunately, this is a painful and long-standing limitation of the
current ODK toolset: cascading-select filters can't filter based on the
response to a repeated field (
https://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/issues/detail?id=886).

The work-around in SurveyCTO is to dynamically load and filter everything
via pre-loaded .csv files. See
https://saurabh.surveycto.com/#Help_Forms_dynamic-selects for help on that
method.

Best,

Chris
