Enhance Carousels

A carousel is a way of displaying a group of questions. Each question is shown on a card with the answers and the carousel moves onto the next question automatically or manually by clicking navigation buttons. The respondent can navigate through all the cards to review their answers.

The appearance of the carousel can be changed in the same way as other questions. You can change:

  • Background color of the carousel cards
  • Font of the question, grid label and box text
  • Box style of the answers
