Adding a single or multiple choice question

1198 — Adding a single or multiple choice question to a survey

The difference of the functionality of single and multiple choice questions is not really big. Single choice questions render as radio buttons, and only one answer is selectable. Multiple choice questions render as checkboxes, and one or more answers are selectable.

Repeat direction

The repeat direction sets the direction in which the radio buttons or the checkboxes within the question are displayed. Assume a list of countries ordered alphabetically and displayed in three columns;

Repeat columns

Enter a positive integer value to set the number of columns to display in the question. In the example above this is 3. The default value is 1.

See Charts.

Answers

Type the answers (one by one) into the Answer text field and click the AddAnswer button to add the answer to the question. This creates an answer grid as you have already seen in Getting Started with DNN Survey .

You may change the sort order of the answers by clicking on the up/down arrows on the left side of the answers and drapping the row to drop it at a new position.
Editing or deleting the answers is not possible at this stage, you can only edit answers that are already stored. When you Update the question and all it's anwers, you can return to edit the question, and there it is possible to edit or delete answers as well. See Edit Questions for further information.
