Entering Multiple Choice Option Prompts and Merge Text

Problem

I want to enter a long prompt and merge text for a Multiple Choice variable, but there isn't much room to enter it at the Properties tab of the Multiple Choice Variable Editor. Is there some way to enter the text and be able to see it all at once?

Solution

If you need to enter lengthy prompt text or merge text, you can do so at the Options tab of the Multiple Choice Variable Editor.

To add prompt text

  1. Edit the Multiple Choice variable. (See Customize a Multiple Choice Variable.)
  2. Click the Options tab. The view changes to show different ways you can customize the multiple choice options.
  3. Click the Option drop-down button and choose the option you want to customize.
  4. Enter the prompt text in the Prompt field.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for any additional options you want to customize further.
  6. Optionally, enter longer merge text in the Default merge text field.
