About This Feature

Overview

Multiple Selections is a setup feature in the Exam module of WPS Smart Forms on Mac. It is used to configure and manage segmented selection content during exam creation. After you enter the form editor, you can open Multiple Selections from the Exam module and complete setup, preview, and saving in the same workflow.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the Multiple Selections entry: go to the Exam module in the form editor and open the related setup item.
  • Set and preview parameters: adjust the available settings in the pop-up panel and check the display result.
  • Save and apply the setup: confirm the settings and save them, then publish a new version if the respondent side needs the latest changes.

This feature is useful for online exam setup, question flow organization, and pre-release checks. It helps editors complete segmented selection setup before publishing and reduces issues caused by unsaved or unpublished changes.

DimensionWPSMicrosoftGoogleNotionAdobe
Capability SummaryProvides a Multiple Selections entry in the Exam module of Smart Forms, with setup, preview, and save actions in one editing flow.Microsoft Forms supports branching in surveys and quizzes, allowing answers to route respondents to later questions or sections.Google Forms supports answer-based routing to different sections for multiple choice and dropdown questions.Notion Forms connects forms to databases and supports conditional logic; this logic is available on Business and Enterprise plans, while form creation and customization are handled on desktop and web apps.Adobe Acrobat official guidance focuses on advanced form fields, calculations, and submit actions, rather than a native exam-style segmented selection flow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: The Multiple Selections entry is placed directly inside the Exam module, making setup, preview, and saving easier to complete in one place.Compared with WPS: branching is supported, but Microsoft states that routing can only go to consecutive later questions or the end of the form.Compared with WPS: routing depends on section-based logic and is limited to specific question types.Compared with WPS: conditional logic has plan limits, and form creation or customization is not available on mobile devices.Compared with WPS: Acrobat is more focused on PDF form field handling and does not document a directly comparable exam segmentation flow on the cited page.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Multiple Selections fits directly into the Smart Forms exam editing flow on Mac, which is helpful when you want to configure, preview, and save in one place. Other products also provide form logic or branching, but their setup models, supported question types, or plan requirements differ.
