Hello!
Could you expand a little more around what you're after? I'm not sure I understand your question.
Best regards

Hi,
I can import survey from an "advanced format txt file".
For example, a simple multiple choice question
--file start
[[Block:Example]]
[[AdvancedFormat]]
[[Question:MC:SingleAnswer:Vertical]]
Select fruits:
[[Choices]]
Apples
Oranges
--file end
This will give me a simple two choice question.
Select fruits:

  • Apples

  • Oranges

After import, I can change the attribute of choices to allow text entry to get this:
Select fruits:
  • Apples (select quantity)

  • ____

  • Oranges (select quantity)

  • ____

I would like to know if it is possible to include "allow text entry" for choices in the "advanced format txt file"
Thank you.
