Survey Text Questions
Survey Text Questions are not actually questions. They are a formattable text option that does not ask for a response from the subject. Text Questions are often used for instructions, descriptions, or any other text not requiring a response. If you want to add instructional information in the form of an image and not text, use a Survey Image Question.
How to Create a Text Question
Click either the Create Survey or the Edit Survey button to access the survey builder page. The Create & Edit Survey section appears.
In the center portion of the Create & Edit Survey section, Click Create Question to access the question dropdown menu.
Select Text from the dropdown menu.
Type and format your text. Formatting options include:
- H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, and H6 are all headings, with the largest font being H1
- Blockquote - used when quoting a large section of text from another source
- UL - adds bullet points to make an Unordered List
- OL - adds ascending numbers to make an Ordered List
- Code Block - used for a section of source code
- Bold - makes your selected text bold
- Italic - slants your selected words
- Underline - places an underline under your selected words
- Monospace - used to differentiate code from natural language text
Click the blue Save button when you are finished building your question.
