This will open the Add Form Dialog.
 
 
 
 

It is important to understand that Forms are made up of one or more “Pages”. Here you are defining the properties that will apply to the form you are creating. Use these values to define the Assessment form.

  • Title -- Assessment
  • Name -- Assessment
  • Published -- Yes
  • Width -- 500
  • Height -- 400
  • Preview -- Overlayed
  • Log to DB -- All Values
  • Email Type -- To Default Address
    Email Report -- All Values
    Email XML -- No
  • Description -- A basic assessment application built using FacileForms 1.1.2 It can be loaded as a package and then customized to contain as many questions and scoring options as you choose.

There are two other tabs on this screen that allow you to set scripts and pieces for the form. We do not use these in this example so I will save that for another tutorial.

Click the Save Icon to return to the Form Manager

You will see your newly created Assessment Form in the list of Forms that came with Facile Forms. Notice in the pages column that there has been a page 1 created for you during the save process. This is where the fun begins. A form in FacileForms can have as many pages as you need for your task. At this point you should have some idea how many pages your going to need and what you want them to do. In our example we will have 4 pages.

Page 1 will be the Introduction and Instructions for the user.
Page 2 will hold questions
Page 3 will hold questions
Page 4 will hold the score and feedback fields as well as the submit button.
