In addition to the answer box placeholders, the Formulas question type provides for two other types of placeholder which are used for multiple choice questions:
- Dropdown menu placeholder
- Radio buttons placeholder
The syntax for this placeholder is {_n:choices:MCE} where _n is the placeholder name (_0, _1, _2, etc.) as for the answer box placeholders, choices is a list of strings to appear as the menu choices and MCE must appear as is.
Example
Use part's text placeholders in the main question to insert the text of three parts.
