Tip vprašanja - Seznam (izbirni gumbi)
From LimeSurvey Manual
Kratek opis

General options
Možnost 'Drugo' (drugo)
Opis
Ta možnost se uporablja pri tipu vprašanja, kjer anketiranec kot odgovor izbere več možnosti. Poleg seznama odgovorov ponuja polje poljubnega odgovora pod "Drugo".
Available options
- On
- Off (default)
Obvezno (obvezno)
Opis
S pomočjo te nastavitve lahko določite ali mora anketiranec odgovoriti na vsa vprašanja ankete. Če ustvarite vprašanje z več podvprašanji, lahko z nastavitvijo min_answers določite, da bo anketiranec odgovoril le na določene dele ankete in ne vse.

Veljavne vrednosti
- Da
- Ne (privzeto)
Enačba relevantnosti
Opis
Vsako vprašanje vam omogoča določiti enačbo relevantnosti, ki je naslednik pogoja. Z enačbo relevantnosti lahko ustvarite veliko bolj zapleteno pogojno logiko.
Označevanje sintakse
Kadarkoli boste shranili enačbo relevantnosti, bo ovrednotena, pregledana bo tudi sintaksa enačbe. Morebitne napake bodo barvno označene, tako da jih boste lahko hitro odkrili in popravili.
Veljavne vrednosti
Vsaka enačba, ki uporablja sintakso Urejevalnika izrazov, brez zavitih oklepajev.
Primeri
Uporabni primeri: Označevanje sintakse.

Naključni vrstni red odgovorov (random_order)
Opis
V tem primeru sistem LimeSurvey ne upošteva vrstnega reda odgovorov oziroma podvprašanj. Razvrsti jih povsem naključno. Pri tem načinu se vrstni red odgovorov spremeni vsakič, ko se vprašanje znova prikaže, kar pomeni, če se v anketi anketiranec vrne na prejšnje vprašanje se bo vrstni red zopet spremenil. Naključni vrstni red vprašanj omogoča nepristransko odgovarjanje na vprašanja. Naključnost odgovorov na vprašanje omogočite pri nastavitvah posameznih vprašanj.
This attribute causes LimeSurvey to ignore the existing order of answer options/subquestions, and instead it orders them randomly. This option permits the survey creator to diminish the survey bias. Please note that if a question has subquestions, the order of subquestions will be randomized, not the order of the answer options.
Možnosti
- Vklopljeno
- Izklopljeno (privzeto)
Example
See this example (outside link) to better understand how to use different LimeSurvey randomization features.
Question theme (question_theme)
Description
It allows you to use customized themes for the respective question.
Available options
- Your created question themes which are located under the Question themes in the Themes panel.
See: https://manual.limesurvey.org/Question_themes
Opis
If enabled, the question will always be hidden - it will not be displayed to the survey participants. This function can be used in the following scenarios:
To nastavitev lahko uporabite, če ste nadomestili vprašanje z URL povezavo in ga anketirancu ne želite prikazati (vključno z njenimi vrednostmi). S tem se izničijo postavljeni pogoji, ki se navezujejo na to vprašanje, saj le to dejansko niti ni bilo postavljeno. Če pa želite vprašanje le skriti (na primer, če želite shraniti vrednost izračunana ***on the fly ***), potem uporabite JavaScript, ki je vgrajen v izvorno kodo vprašanja.
Veljavne vrednosti
- Da
- Ne (default)
Available options
- On
- Off (default)
CSS class (css_class)
Description
If you want to add special CSS classes to certain questions, you can enter the CSS class name(s) in this box. Make sure you leave an empty space between different class names.
Valid values
- Any text string with a space between different CSS class names.

Relevance help for printable survey (printable_survey_relevance_help)
Description
If you wish to print a survey, you can also print the relevance equations for each question. But, if you wish to offer instead an explanation rather than the expression on the printed form, fill in this box with the text explanation for the relevance equation.
Valid values
- Any text and/or numbers you wish to be displayed on the printable form.
Logic
Filter polja (array_filter)
Opis
Filter polja vam omogoča izbiro odgovorov, ki se prikažejo v naslednjem vprašanju z lestvico.
- Izbira več možnosti
- Izbira več možnosti s kometarji
- Več kratkih tekstovnih odgovorv
- Več številčnih odgovorov
- Lestvice in polja (5 stopenjska, 10 stopenjska, Da/Ne/Ne vem, Povečalo/Ostalo enako/Zmanjšalo, Stolpec)
- Lestvica (Dvostopenjska lestvica, besedilo, števila)
- Razvrstitev
Prav tako so lahko filtrirana tudi vsa ta vprašanja.
Nastavitev filtra
Za nastavitev filtra vnesite kodo vprašanja z več možnostmi. Na primer, če je koda vprašanja "Q1" vnesite "Q1" v vnosno polje "Filter polja" ali v vnosno polje "Izločitev filtra polja", ki se nahajajo znotraj naprednih nastavitev vprašanja, ki ga želite filtrirati. Vidni bodo samo odgovori, ki so bili izbrani znotraj vprašanja Q1.

Cascading
The selected options can be displayed in cascade. This means that you can select a question which filters another question, which filters another question, and so on.
Array filter example
Let's take a look at the following example to better understand the power of this setting:

In the screenshot from above, we got two questions. The first one is a multiple short text question type, while the second one is an array dual scale question type. The answers you provide in the first question will be listed in the second one. Technically, the answers you provide to the subquestions from the first question are filtered and displayed in the second question.
This example can be downloaded from the following link: limesurvey_group_32.lsg. Import this question group into your LimeSurvey installation.
Ime naključne skupine (random_group)
Opis
Vprašanje doda v skupino, kjer se vsa vprašanja prikažejo po naključnem vrstnem redu.
You can find a sample survey using randomization group name in ExpressionScript sample survey.
Veljavne vrednosti
Vnesite poljuben želen niz (na primer: 'skupina1'). Vprašanja, ki vsebujejo ta niz, bodo vključena v anketo z naključnim prikazom (=vprašanja se naključno izmenjujejo med seboj).
Question validation equation (em_validation_q)
Description
This is an equation that is used to validate the entire question (e.g, all of its parts collectively for a multi-answer question). If the question fails the validation criteria, then em_validation_q_tip message will be displayed (it uses the CSS style .error). This tip uses the .em_q_fn_validation CSS style, which is hidden by default within template.css.
The main difference between this feature and the subquestion validation equations (em_validation_sq option) is that for this feature, if the question (or question parts) fail validation, then an error message could be shown. For the subquestion validation, each text entry cell (e.g., in an array question type, but it can also be applied to single entry question types) will be styled so that the background color is (light) red.
Valid values
- Any equation that makes use of the ExpressionScript syntax, without surrounding curly braces.
Example
- You want to collect demographic information from users via a multiple short text question, and you want to validate that the user has entered a valid email address and phone number.
This example shows how the question looks with invalid answers:

And here is what it looks like with one invalid answer:

Here is how you edit a question to enter that information:

And here is part of the Show Logic File output that lets you check the accuracy of your expression and ensure that there are no syntax errors:

As you can see, the validation equation tests that both the email and phone number are either empty or match a regular expression filter.
The validation tip only shows the warning message if the phone or email appears invalid.
If you wish to import the example from above into your LimeSurvey installation, download the following .lsq file: Em_validation_q_example.zip.
Tip for whole question validation equation (em_validation_q_tip)
Description
If you are using the question validation equation, you can use this box in order to display an optional message as question tip on how the question has to be filled out.
Valid values
- Any string or equation that makes use of the ExpressionScript syntax.
Example
See the example from the question validation equation wiki section- it shows how the tip can be tailored to show which parts of a multiple short text question fail the validation criteria.
Other
Insert page break in printable view (page_break)
Description
This attribute is only active when you actually print a survey from the Printable View. It forces a page break before the question.
Available options
- On
- Off (default)
SPSS export scale type (scale_export)
Description
This is used for SPSS export only. This attribute overrides the default scale guessed by SPSS. To learn what the different measurement scales do, please read the related SPSS documentation.
Available options
- Default (default)
- Nominal
- Ordinal
- Scale
Statistics
Show in public statistics (public_statistics)
Description
This attribute allows the survey administrator to chose if a particular question results should be displayed to the survey participants after they submitted the survey.

The default setting for each question is 'Off' (=Do not show the question statistics to the respondents). You have to enable this for every single question if you want to show the survey statistics of that (those) particular question(s) to the survey participants after the survey submission.
Available options
- On
- Off (default)
Display chart (display_chart)
Description
This attribute allows the survey administrator to choose if a chart that contains the question results should be displayed to the survey participants after they filled out the survey.

- public statistics survey setting from the presentation & navigation settings
- show graphs survey setting from the presentation & navigation settings
- public statistics question attribute, and
- display chart question attribute.
Available options
- On
- Off (default)
Chart type (chart_type)
Description
This attribute allows the survey administrator to choose which type of chart will be displayed to the respondent once he/she finished filling out the survey.

Available options
- Bar chart
- Pie chart
- Radar
- Line
- PolarArea
- Doughnut
Timer
The following question types support timers:
The timer attributes work best with surveys using the Question by question format. They can also be used in the surveys that use the Group by group format. But, running the group by group format can break the mandatory questions, and implicitly, the survey.
Time limit (time_limit)
Description
Setting the time_limit attribute on a question will cause a countdown timer to begin counting down as soon as that question/page is loaded. At the expiry of the countdown timer the question will either automatically move on to the next page or become read-only.
Valid values
- Any positive integer number
Example
Set it to 240 to count down from 4 minutes (240 seconds).
<translate>
<onlyinclude>
Time limit action (time_limit_action)
Description
Sets the action performed when a time_limit has expired. By default the action for a time limit is "Warn and move on", which means the system will give a short warning that the time limit has expired before saving the question and effectively automatically clicking "Next >>". The alternative choices are to:
- "Move on without warning", which automatically clicks the "Next >>" button after the timer is finished but without any warning message.
- "Disable only", which disables changes in the question so the participant can't change anything, but doesn't automatically click the "Next >>" button.
This setting is only applicable if the general time limit setting is activated.
Available options
- Warn and move on (default): will warn the participant that the time has expired, and then click the next button
- Move on without warning: will immediately click the next button after the time limit has expired
- Disable only: will disable the answer after the time limit has expired but not automatically click next
Additional information

Instead of relying on mandatory questions, you may use expressions (read more about question and subquestion validation equations) to make the user not leave empty the answer fields. To see how the validation equations work, check the following example.
In the case in which you want to apply a timer to a question group, activate the group-by-group survey mode, set up a question to use the time limit functionality, and choose the warn and move on (default) option as time limit action. Once the question timer expires, the survey will move to the next page.

Time limit disable next (time_limit_disable_next)
Description
It allows disabling the "next" button while a time_limit countdown is occurring. Normally, even if the time limit countdown is active, if the participant wants to click "Next" and move on to the next question or question group, they can simply click on the "Next" button (thus cutting short the time spent on the question or question group). By activating this function, the next button will appear greyed out and will not be available until the countdown timer has finished.
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit setting is activated.
Available options
- On - The "Next" button will be disabled until the time limit countdown is complete.
- Off (default)

Time limit disable prev (time_limit_disable_prev)
Description
It allows disabling the "previous" button while a time_limit countdown is occurring. Normally, even if a time limit countdown is active, if the participant wants to click on "Previous" and move to the previous question or question group, they can simply click on the "Previous" button (thus cutting short the time spent on the question or question group). By activating this function, the previous button will appear greyed out and will not be available until the countdown timer has finished.
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit setting is activated.
Available options
- On - the "Previous" button will be disabled until the time limit countdown is complete.
- Off (default)

Time limit countdown message (time_limit_countdown_message)
Description
Write in this field the text message you wish to be displayed in the countdown timer during the countdown. This setting is applicable only if the general time limit setting is activated. If nothing is written, the the field will use the default value: "Time remaining".
Time limit timer CSS style (time_limit_timer_style)
Description
It allows (and overrides the default) css styling used to display the countdown timer. The default style value for this attribute will be used if it does not exist, which is: 'width: 150px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border: 1px solid #111; text-align: center; background-color: #EEE; margin-bottom: 5px; font-size: 8pt;'.
Any text entered into this attribute will overwrite the entire default css style, so you should ensure that care is taken when entering a value for this attribute. A simple way to hide this is to copy the default style into this attribute and add 'display: none;' to the end.
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit setting is activated.
Time limit expiry message display time (time_limit_message_delay)
Description
This attribute sets how many seconds the time_limit_message is displayed before the time_limit_action occurs. If this attribute is not set, it defaults to a value of 1 (1 second).
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit settings is activated.
Example
time_limit_message_delay: 5 = the message displays for 5 seconds
Time limit expiry message (time_limit_message)
Description
This is the text of the message that appears to the participant when the time_limit has expired. By default, this message is "Your time to answer this question has expired". If the time_limit_action attribute is set to "Move on without warning" this message is not displayed. You can set the CSS style for this text in the time_limit_message_style attribute (see below).
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit settings is activated.
Example
time_limit_message: The time limit on answering this question is now up.
Time limit message CSS style (time_limit_message_style)
Description
It allows (and overrides the default) css styling used to display the time limit message. The default style value for this attribute will be used if it does not exist, which is: 'top: 10px; left: 35%; width: 30%; height: 60px; padding: 16px; border: 8px solid #555; background-color: white; z-index: 1002; text-align: center; overflow: auto'.
Any text entered into this attribute will overwrite the entire default css style, so you should ensure that care is taken when entering a value for this attribute. It is strongly recommended that you re-use the z-index value, or that, at least, the z-index value is higher than that used for the time_limit_warning_message_style attribute (which defaults to 1001).
Example
Set to: top: 10px; left: 35%; width: 30%; height: 60px; padding: 16px; border: 8px solid #555; background-color: black; color: white; z-index: 1010; text-align: center; overflow: auto
Time limit warning message timer (time_limit_warning)
Description
With the help of this attribute, you can set the time (in seconds) when the time_limit_warning_message will be displayed before the time limit expires. Setting a value for this attribute activates the time limit warning message.
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit settings is activated. This setting also exists for a second warning message.
Example
If you set this to '20', then the time limit warning message will appear 20 seconds before the time limit countdown reaches zero.
Time limit warning message display time (time_limit_warning_display_time)
Description
It sets for how long the time_limit_warning_message is displayed before it is removed/hidden from the screen. By default, if the time_limit_warning_message appears, it will remain visible until the countdown timer has completed the countdown. If a value greater than zero is introduced in this field, the message will be hidden after that many seconds.
This setting is applicable only if the general time limit setting is activated. This setting also exists for a second warning message.
Example
time_limit_warning_display_time: 10 = The time limit warning message will disappear 10 seconds after its moment of appearance.
Time limit warning message (time_limit_warning_message)
Description
If set up, it displays the text of the warning message which is displayed for a fixed period of time before a time limit expires. The default text is "Your time to answer this question has nearly expired. You have {TIME} remaining." {TIME} is replaced by a formatted description which represents the amount of time left (i.e. "30 seconds", "1 minute or 5 seconds"). This message only appears if the time_limit_warning attribute exists. You can set from the time_limit_warning attribute when the message (time_limit_warning_message) appears.
This question attribute is only applicable if the time limit setting is activated and you set some text in the time limit warning message field. This setting also exists for a second warning message.
Example
Attention: In {TIME} the time limit to answer question will expire.
Time limit warning CSS style (time_limit_warning_style)
Description
It allows (and overrides the default) css styling used to display the time limit warning message. The default style value for this attribute will be used if it does not exist, which is: 'top: 10px; left: 35%; width: 30%; height: 60px; padding: 16px; border: 8px solid #555; background-color: white; z-index: 1001; text-align: center; overflow: auto'.
Any text entered into this attribute will overwrite the entire default css style for the warning message, so you should ensure that care is taken when entering a value for this attribute. It is strongly recommended that you re-use the z-index value, or that, at least, the z-index value be lower than that used for the time_limit_message_style attribute (which defaults to 1002).
This settings is only applicable if the general time limit setting is activated. This setting also exists for a second warning message.
Example
top: 10px; left: 35%; width: 30%; height: 60px; padding: 16px; border: 8px solid #555; background-color: gray; color: white; z-index: 1001; text-align: center; overflow: auto
