Conditional display character styles insert or display texts and symbols based on a property of a question or category. You enter the text or symbol that you want to insert directly into the Look and apply the appropriate display character style. When you apply the Look to a question, UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Paper inserts the text or symbol if the condition defined in the character style is true. Because the text is entered directly into the Looks, you cannot translate it. For that reason, the installed Looks use conditional display character styles only for inserting symbols that do not need to be translated, and they use conditional substitution character styles to insert standard phrases. Phrases defined in conditional substitution character styles can be inserted into any number of Looks, and they can be translated.

For conditions based on a property of a question, enter the symbols or texts in the question portion of the Look. For conditions based on a property of a category, enter the symbols or texts in the answer portion of the Look. If a Look has more than one category row or has multiple columns for the category list, add the conditional display texts or symbols to each category in the Look. This ensures that the symbols are displayed for all of the categories to which the condition applies.

Sometimes you may need to combine texts and symbols using two or more styles.
