[Question] Is there an option to use Checkbox or Dropdown in the Form.io Survey Component? #1156

Description

@SwamiVivekanandBG

In the current implementation, the Survey component in Form.io appears to support only radio button inputs for responses.
I would like to confirm whether there is any existing option or configuration that allows the use of checkbox or dropdown input types within the Survey component.

Use Case:

  • Checkbox: To allow multiple selections for a single survey question.
  • Dropdown: To present a compact list of predefined choices.

If not currently supported, are there any recommended alternatives or plans to introduce this functionality in future releases?

    This isn't supported, but I'm curious about your use-case.
    Have you explored data grid and disabling the adding and removing of rows?
    Or possibly using the table, though I know it doesn't always meet modern responsive design requirements.
