There are two methods of editing a theme:
- You can open a theme for editing by double-clicking on its name in the Themes folder in the Survey toolbox, or by right-clicking on it and choosing Edit.
- You can expand the theme in the Survey Tree, then right-click on the desired element in the theme and select Properties to open the element's properties list.
The theme's Page Editor opens with the elements laid out on the page. You can then edit the layout of the page, and double-click on an element to open its properties list to edit the properties.
Note: If your survey may be answered by users on mobile devices, then you can also set up a Mobile layout for each theme. To edit these settings, right-click on the theme and select Edit Mobile Layout Settings. The settings available are the same as those available through the Edit Mobile Layout button (go to Survey Channels for more information). In the event no specific mobile settings are made for a theme, then the default Mobile Layout will be used.
Figure 1 - Editing a Theme
There are nine different survey elements that can be placed on a survey page. To edit the theme, go to the Layout tab and drag-and-drop elements from the Visual Components toolbox - . Alternatively you can right-click anywhere on the page and choose Insert Component from the pop-up menu. The Layout tab lets you decide the position for each of the survey elements you want to use. The figure above shows how four elements have been dragged-and-dropped onto the page.
- Go to the Custom CSS tab to enter any required Cascading Style Sheet to the theme (go to Custom CSS for more information).
- Go to the JavaScript tab to insert JavaScript into the theme. Theme JavaScript will run when the theme is available for use on the client and before any advanced WI features have been initiated.
- Go to the Preview tab to preview the current theme. Note that Authoring must display a preview of a specified question page, so you must first select a question in the Survey tree to see the preview.
