1. Select the question component. A blue border around the question indicates that it has been selected.

2. Select the Question icon create-toolbar-question-icon.png on the right-hand Project toolbar

In the window, there are several headings containing different controls for the question:

  • Question: contains controls for the question and its answers
  • Feedback: contains controls for the feedback a user sees once they have submitted an answer
  • Buttons: allows you to edit the button used to submit answers
  • Answer colors: use to apply one of the alternative color combinations allowed by your Brand Style. For more information about this, see Changing the appearance of your Project without changing the Brand Style.

Each accordion in the editing window represents an element of your question.

 

2. Using the question editing modal

Expand the accordion of the question you'd like to edit. This will reveal a text field and several new accordions containing controls for each answer:
