Survey settings/fr

=Introduction=

The survey settings menu permits users to edit different survey-related settings. The following survey settings are available by default:




 * Overview
 * General settings
 * Text elements
 * Data policy settings
 * Theme options
 * Presentation
 * Participant settings
 * Notifications & data
 * Publication & access

In the screenshot from above, two buttons are emphasized. They can be used by the users to rearrange the survey settings menu dimensions as they wish. If you wish to rearrange the main survey settings menu, drag the right side of the menu to the left or to the right by clicking on the three-dots button. If you click on the left arrowhead, the menu collapses, getting minimized until the moment in which only a sidemenu with icons is left. To go back to the default view of the survey settings menu, click on the right arrowhead button located above the survey settings menu. Hover the mouse over each option to see what each icon does.

Note: The menu can be changed/edited from the Menu configuration and Menu entries configuration pages. They can be accessed from the LimeSurvey configuration dialog. We recommend the edit of the menus only to advanced users.

=Overview=

The overview page offers a general perspective on your survey. It is divided in two parts:
 * Overview toolbar: The functions from the toolbar allow you to start/stop the survey, check its logic, save & export it, add survey participants, and manually introduce survey participants' data (in the case in which you conduct an offline survey);


 * Survey summary: It comes with a short set of information about your survey.

For a complete description, check the Overview panel wiki page.
