Advanced Values

Last updated Aug 07 2018

FormTitan provides a feature of advanved values for the Multiple input elements: Dropdown, Radion button and Checkbox.
This feature enables you to present the user with options, which have different values behind them. This may be used, for eample, in online tests, where you ask your users to answer a question by selecting the correct answer out of 4 options.  The user sees the 4 answers. but behind each answer there is in fact a different value, which is the score. The 3 wrong answers have a value of 0 while the right answer has the value of 10, for example.
Another case you can use this feature in is when you want to integrate with another system and you need to use an internal value for that. This value is not important to the user and that's why it is not shown to him, however it is necessary for the integration.

How to use the avanced values feature?
