Column Width: You can control the amount of space reserved for the label
and the answer choices.
o EXAMPLE: This is helpful if you have large amounts of text for the
answer rows of a Matrix question. If the column headers consist of less
text, then you can allot more space for the "label" section. Then the
rows of choices will not appear so condensed.
Question Placement: If you want questions to appear side by side, then
choose to have a current question placed next to the previous one. To have
the questions located underneath one another, then leave the default of Start
question on new row.
Question Margin: To allot more spacing between questions or create
indentation through spacing, then this setting is helpful. Sometimes a question
may appear too close to the logo header. Type in a pixel number like "5" or "20"
in the Top Margin setting. This provides space above that question.
Edit Comment Box Size:
You have the ability to edit the size of the comment box for the Open Ended
questions. Click on the Change Question Size & Placement option located within
that question builder.
With the Comment Box or Essay Box type, you can create a text box based on
the number of lines and the number of characters wide (e.g. 5 lines/20
characters wide or 10 lines/70 characters wide).
With the Single Line Input Box, you can set the input box according
to character widths (e.g. 30 characters up to 100 characters).
