Formatting a Likert Scale control

The Likert Scale style displays as a series of radio buttons in Web or on a mobile device. Users can select a radio button to rate an item on a numeric scale. For example, they can specify how satisfied they were with service they received as a value from 1 to 10.

When displayed in a transaction table on an iOS device, the Likert Scale displays as a list.

To format a Likert Scale control

1. You can require that users select a radio button before submitting their changes. Do one of the following:

   • To require users to select a radio button before submitting their changes, select the Input is required check box.

   • To allow users to submit their changes without selecting a radio button, clear the Input is required check box.

2. You can determine whether users rate an item on a scale of 1 to 5, 1 to 7, or 1 to 10. From the Rating Scale area, select one of the following:

   • To have users select from a scale of 1 to 5, select the 5-level option.

   • To have users select from a scale of 1 to 7, select the 7-level option.

   • To have users select from a scale of 1 to 10, select the 10-level option.

3. In the Label for Lowest Rating field, type the explanatory text to display next to the lowest ratings. This text should describe the significance of selecting a low numeric value (for example, "Strongly Disagree").

4. In the Label for Highest Rating field, type the explanatory text to display next to the highest ratings. This text should describe the significance of selecting a high numeric value (for example, "Strongly Agree").
