Surveys often contain collections of related items on a common scale, often of the type: - Rate the following items... - Check all that apply... The example below is a typical set of ratings. Below they are each shown individually, so you can see the entire distribution for each item. <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1571106264457-1571106264457.png" alt="Rating question Q3 asking to rate agreement with ice cream flavors, showing expanded view of two items: Q3a Strawberry and Q3b Vanilla, each displaying 5-point scale data (Strongly agree to Strongly disagree) with frequencies and horizontal bar charts" style="width: 360px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> But you might wish to compact the distributions to just top-box scores, see top-box summary percentages but also see entire distributions stacked in compact, or expand them back to see all the details. To change the settings, press the edit icon (square) and select - Compact to "Strongly agree" - Display stacked - Expand/collapse Click the row icon to see the entire distribution for one item (seen below), or click the group icon for the collection Q3 and select "Expand/collapse" to expand all elements (seen in first image): <img src="/uploads/upload/image/5200/direct/1571106430453-1571106430453.png" alt="Rating question Q3 in collapsed view showing three ice cream flavors (Q3a Strawberry, Q3b Vanilla, Q3c Chocolate) with 5-point agreement scale data compacted to 'Strongly agree', displaying stacked bar charts with dark blue for primary response and lighter shades for other values" style="width: 480px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib"> The top-box summaries in compact mode are selectable values, which you can select with *Click* or *Option+Click* or-select with *Shift-Click*. For more advanced summaries, such as top-two box, select [*Compact to...*](/edit-access/compact-to "Go to \"Compact too...\" tutorial") and enter an array of unformatted values, e.g. `[1,2]`. ## Video tutorial [Condense ranking questions into a compact view](/videos/condense-related-questions-video)
