WSC 5.02 Release Notes

October 2019

Release 5.02 of Web Survey Creator includes star rating enhancements, Response Tags & Filtering enhancements, together with other changes as outlined below.

Star Rating

Response Tags & Filtering

Star Rating

We have extended the capabilities of the Star Rating question so that you can now support half stars along with new star images. These images work great on new mobile devices as they are larger and look great on devices with larger screens.

You can continue to choose the Standard capabilities or choose Extended capabilities with Large Stars and optionally choose to have Half Stars.
Star Ratings
The new extended stars operate in the same way as the standard starts but with a fresh new look.

Response Tags & Filtering

Sometimes you might want to "tag" a response so you can identify it for review purposes. For example, you might identify the response as containing important information or open-ended comments that you wish to review.

You can now "Tag" these responses and then use those tags in filters to produce reports or find all responses that have similar tags.
Click on the "Tag" Toolbar item to add a new Tag.
Response Tags
Enter the Tag details. You choose a Tag Name and an (optional) Tag Value and Tag Colour.
Response Tags
When viewing a response, you can see all tags that are attached to a response. You can click the Tag to Edit or Delete it.
Response Tags
You can create Filter Conditions for Response Tags.
Response Tags
Enter the Tag Name and the (optional) value to search for in the Filter.
Response Tags
Wherever Filters are used you can then Filter for responses that meet your Tag criteria. This is great for "Excluding" responses from reports too.
