Adding Questions and Branches to Pages


You can add questions and branches to pages to design the flow for the page. You can add each question or branch element using the drag-and-drop GUI of the Page Designer.

To add questions and branches to a page

  1. Navigate to Administration - SmartScript screen > Pages view.
  2. Select a page to which you want to add questions.
  3. Click the Designer view tab.

    NOTE:  If you arrived at this view from the Script Designer, the page you double-clicked is already selected in the Pages list applet.

  4. Drag and drop the question icon from the Page Designer palette to the workspace.

    The Pick Question dialog box appears.

  5. Select a question from the list, and click OK.
  6. Repeat Step 4 and Step 5 to add another question.
  7. Drag a branch icon from the palette to connect these two questions with a branch.

    Align the arrowless end of the branch with a connection point on the question from which you want to branch.

    If you select a question with multiple answers, SmartScript gives the option to select an answer for the branch to use or a default branch. A default branch covers the case when a user's answer is not covered by another branch. If you choose not to create a default branch, SmartScript requires you to choose an answer to branch from.

  8. Drag the arrow end of the branch to align it with a connection point on the question to which you want to branch.

To view the branches within a page

  1. Navigate to Administration - SmartScript screen > Pages view.
  2. Click the Branches view tab, and select All Branches from the Visibility filter.

    The Branches list appears, displaying all branches within the page.
