Add a Highlighter question to a survey.

Reporting on multilingual highlighter questions

When authoring a multilingual survey, you may need to use different Highlighter images for each language.

To use the Report tab to report on your data, upload a different image when translating that question. To view the heat map, filter your report by the language you used to translate the question.

1. In Power Survey Authoring, click the Questionnaire tab.
2. On the Authoring Navigation Bar, hover over Question, and then select Highlighter.
3. Type a name for the question, and then click OK.
   For guidelines on question names, see Question names.
4. Add the question text.
   1. Click the Question field, and then type the question text.
      For information on formatting the text and adding files such as images, see Editing toolbar.
   2. Click Update.
   Note:

   • The application automatically removes any Javascript that you add to question text, instruction text, or content boxes.
5. Add an image.
   1. Click the Select image button.
      
   2. In the Image Browser, select or upload the image, and then click Insert.
      Note:

      • Images in the Shared folder are available in all surveys.
      • Images in the images folder are only available in that particular survey.
      • Image file names cannot contain special characters (#, @, !, %, $, *, &).
      For information on editing an image, see Edit an image in a question.
6. In the Properties section, set the question properties.
   • To allow the participant to erase all or portions of their highlighting, select the Allow respondent to erase check box. If you clear this check box, participants do not see the eraser tool or clear button. This is useful if you want to capture their first impressions.
   • If you are adding a Highlighter question to a page that contains another question type, clear the Question completion required box. This ensures the Highlighter question will be skipped and that mobile participants can complete your survey.
   For more information, see Question properties.
7. Click Save.
