Display method
Whether the responses appear as texts with radio buttons or check boxes, or in some other format. For more information, see Display methods for categorical response lists.
Orientation
Whether the responses are displayed in columns down the page or in rows across the page. For more information, see Rows or columns, and how many?.
Number of rows or columns
