Question Text Properties

To modify settings used by the CSPro Designer when editing question text, select Properties from the Question Text menu.
Application Properties
Format to use for new question text: This property determines the format used when adding new questions. When set, this property is saved in the application's question file. When set to <use CSPro property>, new question text is added using the property defined under the CSPro Properties section. Default setting: <use CSPro property>.
CSPro Properties
Format to use for new question text: This property determines the format used when adding new questions if the property has not been overridden by the application property. Default setting: HTML (visual).
Automatic compilation interval (in seconds): CSPro will compile any template expressions that are part of the question text in the background while you use the editor. This property determines how frequently this occurs. Default setting: 1 second.
Show compilation errors for text templates: Compilation errors can be shown as Annotations or End of Line Annotations, with the difference shown below. Default setting: Annotations.
