The orientation attribute determines whether survey items are layed out horizontally or vertically.
<dropdown> <listbox> <slider> <slidertrial> <surveypage> <textbox>
layout |
One of the following values:
|
Survey items that are layed out horizontally conserve vertical space, allowing more items to fit on a survey page. Vertical layout conserves horizontal space, which allows more text to be displayed in captions and options without wrapping. The default value is vertical.
The following shows a radiobutton survey item in horizontal layout:
<radiobutton ratingquestion>
/ caption = "How do you feel about icecream?"
/ options=["excellent", "good", "satisfactory", "bad", "awful"]
/ orientation=horizontal
</radiobutton>
