Comment question
In a Comment question users respond by entering a text. There is no practical limit to the length of the comment.
Creating a Comment question
To create a Comment question right click the Form page where you want to place it and choose Add -> Question -> Comment question.
Properties
General
-
Question text - the question you want to ask. It may contain normal text and dynamic (token) tags. It is easy to create and change by entering text directly in the area provided or by clicking the Lookup button (
) and selecting tags (properties) from the list that opens.
-
Name – the name used to identify the question in the Forms model. By default the name "Comment question" is used, and the Name field is empty. When you enter a question in the Question text field, that text will be used as the question name, and the Name field will still be empty. You can override using the question text as name by entering a different text in the Name field.
If the Question text is long the list will be more readable if you enter a short text in the Name field.
Configuration

Require answer – if this field is checked the question must be answered before the form can be submitted

Node type – the node type against which Corporater BMP stores answer data. Click the Node type button (
) to create a new node type or to select an existing one from the list. The default node type is 'Actual'. -

If you leave the field blank, Corporater BMP uses the organization to which it distributes the form.
