About This Feature
Overview
Multiple Selections is a configuration feature in the voting module of WPS Office Smart Forms on macOS. It is used to set up multiple-selection rules during poll creation, then complete the form setup through preview, save, and publishing steps.
Core tasks include:
- Open the Multiple Selections entry: go from the form editor to the voting module and find the related setting.
- Set and preview Multiple Selections parameters: adjust the related settings in the editing panel and check the display result.
- Save and apply the configuration: confirm the settings, save them, and publish when needed so the updated setup takes effect for respondents.
This feature fits scenarios such as survey voting, event sign-up choices, and internal feedback collection. It helps creators finish poll setup more efficiently and reduce follow-up checks when saved settings do not appear on the response side.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Provides a Multiple Selections entry in Smart Forms voting scenarios, where you can configure settings, preview the result, and save the setup in the editor. | Microsoft Forms supports Multiple Choice Poll, Multiple Choice Quiz, Rating Poll, and Ranking Poll, and these polls can be created and launched in Teams meetings. | Google Forms supports question types such as Multiple choice, Checkboxes, Multiple choice grid, and Checkbox grid for structured selection workflows. | Notion Forms supports Multiple choice and lets form builders set a maximum number of selections for related questions while keeping responses connected to a database. | Adobe Acrobat PDF forms support text boxes, drop-down lists, radio buttons, checkboxes, list boxes, and other field types for fillable form design. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The Multiple Selections entry sits directly in the Smart Forms voting workflow, making it easier to configure, preview, and save in one editing flow. Distinct: For poll-building scenarios on Mac, the entry is more focused on the voting setup path. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft emphasizes general poll types and meeting-based launch workflows in Teams rather than a Smart Forms voting editor path. | Compared with WPS: Google documents general question types and grid-based selection patterns, but the official page does not present a dedicated voting-style Multiple Selections setup. | Compared with WPS: Notion is more database-centered, and official guidance focuses on form creation and customization in desktop and web apps. | Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF form field design rather than a native voting workflow inside a form editor. |

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to configure Smart Forms voting quickly on macOS, WPS Multiple Selections is closer to that editing flow. The other products also provide form or poll capabilities, but their official pages focus more on general question types, database-backed forms, or PDF field design than on the same voting configuration path.
