OK from the question summary I can now see those options. Thanks @eliasa.

It's been a bit of a tortuous road but I'm there now! Not very intuitive thought that those options are available from the summary but not the edit question windows?

Yes, that is true. Not very intuitive. One reason I still not use LS 2.5 but stay with LS 2.06 LTS.
Are the answer button now visible when you get to a question? Or only via summary? I have used the demo on limesurvey.org to make the screenshots. You might check if the demo behaves different from your installation. There might be a bug too.

@jelo

As an occasional user I just updated to the latest "stable" version. As to you questions:-

1. No the options are not available in the question edit window only on the summary

2. This is the same on the demo:-
demo.limesurvey.org/index.php?r=admin/qu...43511/gid/57/qid/263

I'll post it as a feature request.

@jelo & @elisa

Yes, I totally agree that the options to add subquestions/answer options should be on the edit question page. However: They never were before either. You had to save the question and then add the answer options/subquestions on a different screen. Just like now.

Only now (from 2.5) this is even more hidden than before.

@Tammo made some nice mockups on how to improve the interface, make it more intuitive and quicker to use. But the suggestions have not been taken over by the development team.

@holch Agreed it is more obscure. When I first used LS, 9 months ago, I had no trouble creating a questionnaire including array questions. This time I spent endless time and got nowhere:-

There are two explanations for this:-

1. I have become more stupid in the intervening time (not impossible but improbable)
2. The interface had become less intuitive.

My money is on number 2 of course

Even not knowing you, I am quite sure it is "2". Unfortunately.

There are some attempts to fix this, but currently other things seem to have higher priority than fixing the usability problems.

For me, this actually would be highest priority. Because currently it is quite tedious work to add a new question with 2.5.

Which is why many of the older Limers are still sticking with 2.06. It is just so much quicker to create surveys. Whenever I answer questions here on the forum that require some testing I am forcing myself to do it with 2.5+. But each time I am puzzled how bad the process actually is. Just yesterday... Created a question. Then no where to go. You have to click on close on the question edit screen to get to the options to add/edit answer options and subquestions. Just doesn't make sense to me.
