Setting Answer/Topic Properties: 

We have added 2 additional columns that control the Extended Screen settings for an answer/topic:

Extended Screen Good Answer - Checking this in an Answer will show only these answers in the Answers Summary, will usually be used if we would like to show the interviewer only the "Good" answers he chose, for example: showing only 'Yes' for Yes/No Answers. 

Extended Screen Hidden - Hiding the answer from the interviewer. Should be checked if you do not want to show the answer to the interviewer such as: Don't Know, Don't want to Answer etc. 

 

Using a Different Language in the Extended Screen:

If you would like to use a different language in the extended screen please use this script in your survey

You can use either of these options:

ExtendScreenMgr.SetLanguageByNetCode()

ExtendScreenMgr.SetLanguageByID()
