Working with Question Templates

Question templates are the backbone of complex questionnaires. By configuring your questions in the appropriate question type, you can quickly create and manage multiple questionnaires.

Layout for Groups of Questions

When you create a question group, you can sort additional questions under it.

You can graphically sort these questions in a grid layout. To do this, you can define the row, column, and width of each question. The following technical conditions apply:

  • You have 12 columns available.
  • The first row starts at 0 (for technical reasons).
  • The first column starts at 0 (for technical reasons).
  • On mobile devices, the questionnaires will automatically be single-column.

You can adjust the settings using the buttons with the left, right, up, and down icons.

Example: 1 Column

For a single-column form, you can place the questions in the group one after the other. If you want to make changes and reorder the questions, you can place them in each row (0, 1, 2, etc.).

Example: 2 Columns

For a two-column form, your questions will have a width of 6. Your questions can start in any row and in column 0 or 6.
