Overview 

The Mixed Type Repeater Manager leverages the mixed-type repeater control and Rules to support question dependencies, enabling Users to build Forms that adapt to a variety of purposes. This Project also allows Designers to create, update, remove, and reorder sections to accommodate various use cases. 


Key Features

  • Pre-designed Question Template and Design Pattern
  • Ability to create new templates and manage available templates via Dashboard. 
  • Pre-built Subflows that Designers can drag and drop into existing Projects.

  • Designers must install Error Handling before installing this Project. 

Designer Elements

Question Dependency Rules

This Project provides a template and associated Design Pattern. These items allow Designers to add, remove, or modify the available Rules associated with question dependencies. 

It is recommended not to delete any rules in use

Question Type Conversions

This folder contains elements that enable Designers to manage available Section or Question Types in the following settings folders:

Designers should note that some Flows and Truth Tables in this Folder may need to be updated in order to make new Question Types that are available for use.
