The Segment Control serves as a visual feedback tool, ideal for analysing concise data inputs from a predefined list of options. For instance, it is an effective way to evaluate the health and safety protocols at a construction site. The control's display options include text or icon representations, such as smiley or sad faces.
To integrate a Segment Control into your form, access the form designer via your portal account. Navigate to the Basic Data Capture menu and select the Segment control option. Adjust the control's behaviour using the Segment Editor in the properties panel.
Toggle between Text and Icon modes to customize the display. In Text mode, modify the displayed text and add an alternative caption if necessary. In Icon mode, choose from a variety of icons provided in the Segment Icon section.
Users also have the option to choose between vertical and horizontal display modes for the segment control in the form designer tool, providing greater flexibility in organizing and presenting data within forms.
The Value Default feature allows you to preselect a specific segment upon opening the form. To add more segment fields, simply drag and drop the "Drag to add New Segment" option. Conversely, remove unwanted segments by dragging them to the "Drop Here to remove Segment" section.
Upon finalizing the changes in the Segment Editor, save the configuration by selecting "Done."
