About This Feature
Overview
Single Choice Question is a configuration feature in WPS Office Smart Forms on Windows for collecting one answer from a predefined set of options in a file collection workflow.
Core tasks include:
- Open the Single Choice Question entry: go from the form editor to the File Collection module and enter the question editor.
- Set up and confirm the question: adjust settings in the editing panel, preview the result, and confirm the configuration.
This feature fits scenarios such as surveys, registration confirmation, and option-based checks before file submission. It helps reduce inconsistent free-text answers and keeps option collection easier to manage in one form flow.
