Too much space between question and answer

I am designing a survey.

The problem I have is that for a question, after the title of the page I have a one-row question.

The answer option remain too distant from the question (it is too low).

How can I shorten the distance between the question and the answer options?

Thank you in advance.

I've just updated to Version 2.50+ Build 160620 and noticed this too. So much vertical space between questions and answers.

In CSS it seems answer-container has a lot of padding top
padding-top: 3em;
It helps a bit if you decrease it.

In my opinion, questions are separated too much as well. (Using ubuntu_orange)

How can I do it through the platform?

In the template editor you make a copy of the default theme.

Then, in template.css you change padding-top:

.answer-container
{
border-width: 0px 1px 0px 1px;
padding-top: 0.2em;
background-color: white;
}

In your survey general settings you then have to choose the new template you have created.

I would rather like to see this change (or similar) in the core themes.

Thank you.

Is it possible to shorten also the space in the question?

You can also decrease padding in question title container, for example:

.question-title-container {
color: white;
[strike] padding: 2em 1em 1em[/strike]
padding: 0em 1em 0em;
}
