Introduction

A survey can be delivered in a lot of different ways for a lot of different purposes, so there are many settings that allow you to tweak the survey according to your needs.

A "question" is where users actually answers to the survey, such as radio buttons, drop down menus or check boxes, "formats" are graphical elements such as labels, page breaks, and fieldsets.
