RadioResponse

Defined in: parser/types.ts:693

The RadioResponse interface is used to define the properties of a radio response. Radios have only one allowable selection. RadioResponses render as a radio input with user specified options, and optionally left and right labels.

"id": "q-radio",
"prompt": "Radio button example",
"location": "aboveStimulus",
"type": "radio",
"options": ["Option 1", "Option 2", "Option 3"],
"default": "Option 2",
"optionOrder": "random",
"leftLabel": "Left",
"rightLabel": "Right",
"labelLocation": "inline",
"horizontal": true,
"withOther": true
}
