About This Feature

Overview

Single Selection is a Smart Forms feature in WPS Office for Mac that is used to set up a single-choice voting question in the File Collection workflow. It is suitable when respondents should choose only one option.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the Single Selection entry: go to the form editor, open File Collection, and find Single Selection.
  • Configure the single-choice settings and preview the result: adjust the related settings in the editing panel and check the display.
  • Save and apply the setup: confirm the settings so the form collects one selected result per response.

This feature fits scenarios such as event registration, preference collection, and pre-approval routing.
