Editor modes
List and graph modes
Two ways to look at the same survey — a linear list, or a flow graph you can branch.
Every survey can be edited two ways. The toggle sits in the editor header — try it:
- List mode shows editable question cards.
- Graph mode shows nodes and the paths between them.
Local example with fictional survey content.
List editor
Both modes edit the same survey. There is no importing or converting between them, and nothing is lost by switching: a change made in one shows up immediately in the other.
Which to use
List is the faster way to write. Questions render as respondents will actually see them, so you are working on the real thing rather than a summary of it.
Graph is the faster way to reason about flow. When a survey branches, the list can only show you one question after another; the graph shows every path at once.
