- Tick the box next to Hint text and click in the input box displayed below.
- Click on the Rich text editor link at the top right of the input box to reveal the RTE window.
- Click on the Code View icon in this window.
- Insert the cursor into the input box and add the following script:
<style type="text/css">
.rt-container .rt-matrix-container table .rt-mtx-choice-has-open label + .rt-mtx-open-container {
width: 100%;
}
</style>
- Click the Save changes button at the bottom of the window to immediately resize the text fields for all matrix questions, see image below.
