Snap XMP comes with a number of question styles. They are all available for use in Snap XMP Desktop. We have developed a sample questionnaire that shows the different question styles. You can use this questionnaire<\/a> to see how the questions behave in a live interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing a question style in Design mode<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you are designing the questionnaire in the Questionnaire window, the question style drop-down list shows the most used styles, and a “More Styles” entry at the end of the list. Click this to open the Style Picker<\/a><\/strong>, which contains a list of all the available styles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also access the list by clicking Style Picker<\/strong> <\/a>\"StylePickerIcon.png\" on the Questionnaire toolbar. The Style Picker tool is an easy way of applying a question style to questions in your questionnaire. This tool is only available in Design<\/strong> mode \"DesignModeIcon.png\" . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Temporary Question Styles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Changes made to a question in Design Mode<\/strong> \"DesignModeIcon.png\" will create a new temporary style called “like” <\/strong>followed by the original style name. For example, when you change the style of an Open Ended question, the question changes to “like Open Ended<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can select the type of styles you would like to view in the preview window, by selecting from ‘All Styles’, ‘All Variables’, ‘Named Styles’, ‘Unused Styles’ or ‘Used Styles’ in the Style<\/strong> drop-down list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Using Style mode to modify question styles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Style<\/strong> mode \"StyleModeIcon.png\" allows you to make modifications to the styles, whereas Design<\/strong> mode allows you to modify the individual questions. Style<\/strong> mode allows you to make consistent changes to all questions of the same style, without having to make individual question changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
