When you have selected a question, you can now assign the predefined list as answer or scale.

When you are creating a predefined list, press the Shift+P keys to automatically assign the predefined list being created to the question that was previously loaded.

Note: It is not possible to mix regular (individual) answers and predefined lists in a question; a question can use only pure answer lists or one predefined list.

Once several predefined lists have been created, press Ctrl+1 to automatically assign the first reusable list to the selected question, press Ctrl+2 to add the second list etc. (up to Ctrl+9).
