Summary | 12480: Ambiguous Instructions for Adding multiple answers | ||||
Description | The documentation on adding multiple answers to a dropdown / radio question is as follows: "Enter one answer per line. You can provide a code by separating code and answer text with a semicolon or tab. For multilingual surveys you add the translation(s) on the same line separated with a semicolon or tab." However, this is ambiguous. Based on the instructions I have tried: <code>;<answer> But I get a new auto-generated code with "<code>" as the answer text when I would have expected the code to be used. The instruction should probably include a short example. | ||||

What is the link to the particular documentation page? |
|
I now see that when there are mulitple languages, you should instead enter <answer>;<answer> If there is a part of the manual that covers it, which I could help edit, please let me know, but I couldn't find any. |
|
There is no documentation page; it is part of the instructions in the UI (see screenshot) |
|
If you have several languages the minimum is the label for each language. |
|
Too bad, I would have loved to help improve documentation or usability here. |
