Making Survey Filling Easy With Drop Downs

If you have ever filled out a survey, we bet you must have come around a drop down menu, either asking you about our gender or your location. 

Drop down question types are usually similar to multiple choice questions. However, unlike MCQs, drop downs differ in terms of structure. 

  • To add a Drop Down question type to your survey on SurveyPoint, open the workspace and click on “Create a new survey +”. You can also use our pre-made templates if you don’t want to start a survey from scratch. 
  • To create a new survey, click on the new survey. Once you do that, select “Long Form” from the pop-up. 
  • To create a new survey using the Long form, choose “ Start from Scratch”. This will allow you to manually input your questions and customize the survey to your needs.

  • If you already have your questions saved in .csv file, you can also go with the option to “Upload CSV” and import your questions directly into the platform.
  • After selecting your option, you will be redirected to another pop-up requesting you to fill out the required information. Simply give your survey a name and enter the other details.
  • Now that you’ve created your survey, just click on the “Add Question” button in the “Create Survey” section to add a new question.
  • Once you click on the button, the platform will automatically generate a question box for you.

  • Alternatively, you may select the “Add section” button to make a separate section and then add your question.
  • To select the type of question you want to add, simply click on the drop-down menu under “Select Question Category” and choose the Drop Down.
  • Enter a title and some optional descriptive text to your question. 
  • Enter your choices for the drop down menu under options as shown below. You can also add more choices by clicking on “Add Choice.


Question Settings 

  • Enable the Required option to make the question mandatory to fill out. 

Adding Design Elements 

To modify the design of your questions, simply click on the small brush icon (design icon) situated on the sidebar.

You can add different color options to question and answer by clicking on the down arrow option. 

  • Just click the arrow to choose the correct shade. Depending on your preference, you can use a grid, a spectrum, or some sliders to make your selection. This allows you to fine-tune the color and zero in on just the correct shade.

  • You can also change the button color by following the same procedure. 
  • To incorporate a solid background to your question, click on “Background” and choose the desired color.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Please keep in mind that if you change the settings or designs of one question, similar changes will also be made to other questions in the survey.
