Hi,
Is there a way to prevent a data collector from swiping backwards for individual questions? For example, I don't want the data collector to go back to a previous question if it was entered incorrectly, but this should only be relevant for specific questions, not all questions.
Help?
Cheers,
I assume this is a question about ODK Collect.
No, there is no way to forbid going back to a previous question.

Hi Nikhil,
I've got a very early fork of Collect that can prevent backward motion
on a per question level.
If this is important feature to get into trunk, shoot me an email and
we can figure out how best to make it happen.

Hi Yaw/Nikhil,
I'm working with the Kerala Police, India on a training project that
involves the use of ODK. Has this issue of preventing swipe back been
resolved? is there a way to achieve this at a question level? Might this be
an addition to 'appearance' attributes?
Thanks in advance,
Jaideep.
Note that the hierarchy view, which allows you to arbitrarily jump around
the form, would also be problematic. This is not part of the core ODK
distribution, and would be extremely difficult to implement in any
consistent manner.
If the intent is to capture the initial answer, you can do this with a
calculated field:
fieldA -- prompt asking for user-supplied answer
firstAnswerFieldA -- calculated field using the formula: once(${fieldA})
This formula will store the first non-empty answer entered into fieldA.
Users can go back and change their fieldA answer, but it would not alter
the value of ${firstAnswerFieldA}
Your analysis would then use firstAnswerFieldA

Jaideep,
Preventing backward motion is possible, but requires a fair bit of
code change. If this is important feature for you, shoot me an email
off-list, and we can figure out how best to make it happen.
Thanks,
Yaw
