See all options in cascading selects

Hi,

Is there a way to see all options (not just the selected one) of a cascading select?

Basically our setup is like this:
We are working with plenty of schools that belong to different district.
When our field staff fill out a survey they should choose which district they are assigned and then answer questions to all schools in this district.
So far I would let them select the district they're working in and then use a cascading select_multiple to display all schools within this district. We asked the staff to select all schools in the select.
I would then use a repeat to ask questions about all the schools that were chosen.

Is there a way to just ask for the district and then run a repeat on all schools within this district, so the staff don't have to manually select all schools?

Thanks for your help,

Jonas

Hi Jonas,

You can make district specific forms that have repeats with all the
school names already filled out. That setup is going to be unpleasant
to manage and analyze so I wouldn't recommend it.

You could also have enumerators fill out a GPS coordinate at the
school and then in your analysis associate the data with the closest
school. Probably easier to have enumerators select the schools though.
