About This Feature

Overview

Settings is used in the smart form polling workflow to open relay settings, adjust related options, preview the result, and confirm the final setup. It is suitable for managing relay-related configuration before a poll is published, so you can review the setup in one place.

Core tasks include:

Open relay settings: enter the settings panel from the Poll section in the form editor.
Adjust related options: modify relay-related settings in the panel.
Preview the result: review the current effect before confirming.
Save and apply: confirm the setup so the workflow can continue.

Capability Summary	Provides a settings entry in the smart form polling workflow so you can open the settings panel, adjust options, preview the result, and confirm the setup.	Microsoft Forms provides form and quiz settings for response scope, start and end dates, question order, progress indicators, and receipts.	Google Forms provides settings and publishing controls such as one response, response editing, response summaries, and publishing or sharing options.	Notion Forms lets users configure questions, required fields, descriptions, anonymous responses, and sharing in database-connected forms.	Adobe Acrobat Sign Web Forms focuses on web form publishing and signing flow configuration, including participants, email verification, preview, and access control.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: the settings entry is directly placed in the poll editing workflow, making it easier to complete configuration, preview, and confirmation in one continuous path.	Compared with WPS: settings focus more on general form response rules instead of a relay-style poll editing flow.	Compared with WPS: the product emphasizes publishing, responses, and result sharing rather than a dedicated relay-style poll setup path.	Compared with WPS: it is more oriented to database-based form collection, and form creation or customization is limited to desktop and web apps.	Compared with WPS: it is more oriented to signing-oriented web forms and agreement workflows than everyday poll relay editing.

Overall Conclusion
If your main goal is to finish relay settings quickly while creating a poll, WPS keeps the entry path more focused and direct. Other products also provide form settings, but their emphasis is broader form management, database-backed forms, or signing-oriented web forms.
