About This Feature
Overview
Multiple Choice Question is a setup feature in the File Collection area of WPS Smart Forms on macOS. It is used to add a question that allows respondents to select multiple options and to complete question setup before the form is used.
Core tasks include:
- Open the Multiple Choice Question entry: go to the form editor, open File Collection, and locate the question type.
- Configure question settings: adjust the available settings in the editing panel.
- Preview the question result: check how the question appears before finishing setup.

This feature is suitable for registration forms, pre-submission screening, preference collection, and other file collection workflows where one question needs multiple selectable answers.
