I am trying (in L/Studio) to use a Free Format slider or a Semantic Differential Question to do the following:
Person has 100 chips to allocate between 2 attributes of a job (Location, Specialism).
As they drag the slider (which starts midway) between the 2 attributes, the value of the chips allocated to them (X and 100-X) are displayed.
I can partly achieve this with either Q type but neither one is quite giving me what I want:
The Free Format (code below):
• displays the points allocated to Location but not Specialism
• doesn't have the labels at each end
• doesn't start midway
• has rather washed out colours
The Semantic Differential Question:
• doesn't display the points allocated to either Location or Specialism
You can see the 2 attempts at:

Can anyone help achieve the aim, using either Q format?
thanks
Dan
The Free Format code:
<script>
$(function () {
$("#slider-range-min").slider({
range: "min",
value: 0,
min: 0,
max: 100,
slide: function (event, ui) {
$("#slider_value").val(ui.value);
}
});
});
</script>
<p>
<label for="amount">Points Allocated to Location:</label>
<input name="slider_value" type="text" id="slider_value" style="border:0; color:#f6931f; font-weight:bold;">
<label for="amount">Points Allocated to Specialism:</label>
<input name="slider_value" type="text" id="slider_value" style="border:0; color:#f6931f; font-weight:bold;">
</p>
<div id="slider-range-min"></div>
