About This Feature

Overview

Other Settings is a configuration area in Smart Forms surveys in WPS Office for Windows. It is used to manage additional survey settings and confirm how those settings take effect after submission. After you open this area, you can continue adjusting settings, preview the result, and confirm the save action.

Core tasks include:

  • Open Other Settings: Enter the additional settings area from the survey editor.
  • Adjust related settings: Modify available options in the settings panel.
  • Preview and confirm save: Check the result and confirm the save action to complete the survey setup.

This feature is useful when you want to review survey settings before publishing, update additional options in an existing survey, or confirm that the final setup matches your needs. It helps reduce missed settings and keeps the editing flow connected from setup to preview and save.
