Modifying the font of Answer Text

Hi all,

I have been using the Answer Text to show values for a dropdown list. Would like to know if the font of this text can be modified.

At the moment, the Answer Text font seems to mirror that of my default Question Text, which is bolded. I intend to keep my Question Text bold but have the Answer Text to be in plain text. I can't find any controls in the Mode Library which can do this.

Please advise.

How did you bold the questiontext, did you go to the mode library and changed Style | Fonts | Default | Bold to 'On', or did you just use @b in front of your question text?

In the first case I also get the answer text in bold, in the second case the answer text is not.

Consider your modelib settings

Hi Gordon

Ralph has a point. If you set the default font to be Bold then the answer text will also be bold. You have a choice of adding bold markers for your question text or setting non-bold markers for your answer texts (you may need to create one in your modelib then apply it to all your answer texts). Alternatively, you could instruct your interviewers to not read the answer texts unless a directive is given to do so. I prefer this option. Don't forget that your interviewers are human and capable of distinguishing between question text and answer text(s).

Good luck

Yes I did turn the Bold setting 'on' for the Default font in the Mode Library. I wanted all my Question Text to be consistently bold. Ok, I will try to come up with a control (maybe @P for plain text) just for this one Answer Text. Thanks for that.

Thanks,
Gordon
