Adding a list of responses to multiple questions
Two of the questions, DrinkCoffees and FavoriteCoffee, still need a response list. As both of these questions will use the same list of responses, you can create a shared list to attach to both questions. To do this, you first add the shared list of responses, then insert the list into the questions.
Add a shared list
1 Click Insert > Shared List > Add New, or press Ctrl+F11.
The list is added to the Shared Lists pane. The Design pane displays the new list with the default name of List.
2 In the Design pane, change the default name to CoffeeList.
3 Click in the first row of the Response field, and then enter the following responses on separate lines, pressing Enter after each:
Costa Rican
Colombian
Java
Italian Blend
Brazilian
When you add the response descriptions, UNICOM Intelligence Author automatically generates a default response name for each response in the Name field (this is used as a unique identifier for the response when it is used in other applications). By default, Response is the only visible field. To view the Name field, click the Field Chooser icon and select the Name field. The Design pane refreshes to display the Name field.
Add the shared list to the questions
1 In the Routings pane, select the DrinkCoffees question.
2 Click the Responses heading in the Design pane.
3 Click Insert > Shared List > Use Existing > CoffeeList.
The list is added to the question.
Another way to insert a shared list is to use the context menu.
4 In the Routings pane, select the FavoriteCoffee question.
5 Right‑click the Responses heading in the Design pane, and then click Insert Shared List > CoffeeList.
6 Press Ctrl+S to save the changes.
