I have a survey where I am asking about species identification. I want to italicize the species which are in a dropdown list. In the survey GUI, there wasn't a rech context editor, but I was wondering if this could be managed with by exporting the qsf file, and adding a tag in there. Would I use tags found here: .QuestionText .ExportTag{font-style:italic} ? If so, where should I put this into my qsf file? After the value of the Display key? Example: "Choices":{"1":{"Display":"Aedes aegypti".ExportTag{font-style:italic}} The above does not work, but I don't know how the qsf file is parsed.
