Visualizations auto-generated by the Visualization Assistant are not editable, but they can serve as a template or source of inspiration as you work on your dashboard.

Touchpoint
-
This new high-density display option for Single Choice and Multiple Choice Text Questions displays answer options closely together as pill shapes. It is ideal for questions that have many short, text-based response options and reduces participant scrolling.
-
This new distribution method allows you to generate a code snippet, which you can then use to embed an activity in a web page.
-
Purge all data that was flagged as sensitive from an activity. When you initiate sensitive data purge for an activity, the activity enters the sensitive data purge queue. Purge requests are processed at 11:59 PM local time wherever the pod server is located (NA1, NA2, EU1, EU2, or AP2).
-
Multilingual activities allow participants to select the language of their choice
For all distribution methods, you can now select or clear Allow Respondents to change activity language. When this option is selected, participants can choose their preferred language from a menu in the top left corner of the first screen. Their language choices cannot be changed in subsequent screens. The available languages reflect the languages in which the activity was authored.
-
Translated system messages (such as the "Activity no longer available" and "Page not available" screens) are now available for a subset of languages. More languages will be supported in the future.
-
Multilingual activity enhancements
We've improved the multilingual activity authoring experience with these changes:
-
Can set default language to something other than English
In the language menu, click the star beside any language to set it as the default.
-
Language boxes are auto-populated with placeholder text
Instead of displaying red outlines around empty translations in the Translations editor, the language boxes now display placeholder text that must be replaced.
