Adding Number Question Type To Your Surveys 


The number question type is just like a text question. It is an open-ended question where respondents can type in their responses. However, the only difference is instead of texts, the respondents can only respond with numbers. 

  • To add this question type to your surveys in SurveyPoint, visit your workspace and click on “Create a new survey +” or “Use Templates.“

You can also add this question to your recent surveys by opening that survey. 

  • Once you have opened the survey, click on the small “+” icon present on the top right corner of your sidebar. 

  • Once you click on the “+” icon, you will be able to see all the question types offered by SurveyPoint. Choose “Number” from the list to add this question type to your survey. 

  • Once you choose this question type, the screen will be redirected to where you can enter the text to this question type. 
  • To give your question a title, replace the placeholder text with your question text. You can also add a description to your question, allowing your respondents to know how to fill out this question. However, this part is optional. 

  • You can delete the question by clicking on the three dots present on the question in the sidebar. 


Navigating Settings 


You can change the settings of your short text by navigating to the settings tab, present on the top left and right next to the “Questions” corner of the sidebar. 

  • By enabling the Required option in the settings panel, you can make this question mandatory.

  • You can also add a limit to the characters by enabling minimum and maximum characters a respondent can enter. Once you enable it, simply enter your limit right below the button. 

  • After entering your limit, press “Enter” which will bring up a pop-up. To proceed, simply click “Close”.

Adding An Image Or Video To Your Questions


This question type allows you to add an image or a video. 

  • To add an image or a video, click on the ‘Add image or video’ button and select the file from your media section. 

  • You can either upload from your system or search for stock images via Unsplash by clicking on Image. Simply type the related keyword and select the image most appealing to you.

  • You can also enhance the look by uploading a video and icons. Also, if you want to select the previously selected media again, you can do so from My gallery.

Tip: You can also drag and drop the image or video file into the drop box. The acceptable files should either be PNG or JPG. If you want to upload a GIF, it must not be more than 4 MB. 

  • By clicking the “Delete” button, you can also remove the video, GIF, or image.

  • To incorporate an image, simply click on your desired image.  Then, the platform will present you with various text-wrapping options on the side panel. Choose the one that best suits your needs and proceed.


  • Additionally, you can modify the image’s brightness through the side panel “Brightness” toggle.

Adding Design Elements 


You can customize your questions by clicking on the small brush icon (design icon) situated on the sidebar. 

  • You have the option to either visit the “Custom” or “Gallery” sections to personalize your questions.



Custom Options 

You can add a variety of color choices to both your questions and answers by clicking on the “colour picker” down-facing arrow option.

  • With ease, simply click on the downward-facing arrow and select the desired color. You have the choice to select from a grid, spectrum, and sliders, allowing you to adjust the color and effortlessly find the ideal shade you desire.

  • You can also change the button color by following the same procedure. 

  • To incorporate a solid color background to your question, simply click on “Background” and choose the desired color.

  • Moreover, if you want to go the extra mile and want any particular image in the background, SurveyPoint allows you to do that as well. Just click on “Background Img” and add the file to spice up your survey look.

  • You can also add avatars by adding them to the background. Simply click on Avatar and upload the file. 
  • Additionally, you can enable the “Typing Emulation” option to mimic typing. This feature consists of three or two animated dots that indicate that a respondent is actively typing their response. This enhances the interactivity and realism of the survey experience.

  • For the font size of your questions, you have the option to select from small, medium, and large by choosing between “Lg”, “Md”, and “Sm”.
  • To bring the text to the middle, click on the alignment option given in the bottom left corner of the sidebar. 



Gallery 

You also have the option to choose from a variety of default designs within the platform. Simply visit the “Gallery” section, select your preferred template, and personalize the question to your liking.

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.
