About This Feature

Overview

Drop-Down Question is a Forms configuration feature in WPS Office for Mac. It is used in relay-style collection scenarios where creators need respondents to choose from a fixed list of options. In the form editor, you can open the relay module, add a drop-down question, configure its settings, preview the result, and then confirm the setup.

  • Open the Drop-Down Question entry: go to the relay module in the form editor and find the drop-down question option.
  • Configure the question: set the related options in the editing panel.
  • Preview and confirm: check the display result before finishing the setup.
