Is it possible to put a frame around a question?

Hello everybody,

I unfortunately had no idea into which category to put my question, as it concerns the layout of the questionnaire.

I was wondering if it is possible to put a frame around a question. Alternatively, I could use a picture as a background, if that is possible.

Can anyone help me and tell me if one or the other is possible and if so, how it is done?

Thank you very much in advance

To frame out your question with a border you can add the following to your question text using the HTML view option on the question editor dialog.

<style>
div.Inner.BorderColor {border: solid #ededed;}
</style>

The solid border style is a basic example, but here is a link to additional border options available in css:

Update: dropped the ".SAVR" from the css as it restricts the border to just single answer multiple choice question. The updated script can be used for the other question types as well.

I tried adding it at the very top and bottom of the page, as well as somewhere in the middle, but no border appears. For example, when including it in one of my questions, the code is:

//EDIT:
  1. With this code, a frame does appear, but only if I choose the "Classic" Layout. With "modern" and" Flat" there is no frame. I want to use the "modern" layout. How can I make it work?

  2. Also, with the above code, not only the question I insert the code into (Q1) but all questions within the same block get a frame. It looks like this (Q2 is largely cut off in the scrrenshot, I hope it makes sense):
