Multiple choice answer with penalty was created by Nastavnic
Hi guys,


I am having an issue here..I can't figure out how I can set a multiple choice question with many possible answers with penalty (that is, assessment value) in this new version. The result should not be so different from the picture attached, which is a screenshot from the old version). Could anyone help me out?

Thank you!!!

Did you activate the assessment mode?

I did, I also put in some Assessment Rules and everything seems to be ok. My problem is that I don't see the option "Edit answer options" when I set a question as "Multiple Choice". It is just missing! On the contrary I can see it if I set the question as "List Dropdown", in this case I can click on it and add/edit answers with any assessment value I want. It is so weird. Any clue? Thanks in advance

Looks like a bug.

Please take a look at the bugticket. There is a feedback. Sounds like multiple-choice questions don't offer that kind of assessment. Never used it. The manual still mention that it should be possible.

Seems to be no bug. Take a look at comments in the closed bug ticket. The manual might need a clarification that only one value can be assessed.

Thanks both of you for the feedback and all!

Honestly I find just disappointing that such an important feature hasn't been implemented in the new version, for many surveys it is rather crucial after all. Now I must think of something to go around the problem (not sure I'll make it by the way).

Is the question in that old screenshot a multiple-choice question?


Yes it is, taken from an old version of the application. But unfortunately it can't help anymore..

I don't think they removed the feature. That's why I asked, if that is a multiple choice question in the screenshot. The developers said, that there never was such a assessment function for every subquestion in a multiple choice question.
But I can no longer help, cause I never use assessments. Feel free to check the ticket and comment there. Perhaps someone else will comment here too. Good luck.
