Configure Question Titles

You can specify the title property to set a question title. If you leave it unspecified, the question displays its name value as a title. However, question titles can have additional elements that you can configure, such as question numbers and required marks.

• Question Numbers
• Required Mark
• Title Pattern

Questions are numbered starting with 1. If you want to start numbering with a different number or use letters instead, specify the Survey's questionStartIndex property. You can include desired prefixes and postfixes in the property value:

const surveyJson = {
  // ...
  "questionStartIndex": "a.", // a., b., c., ...
  "questionStartIndex": "#3", // #3, #4, #5, ...
  "questionStartIndex": "(B)." // (B)., (C)., (D)., ...
}

Surveys use continuous numbering across all pages. If you want to start numbering on each page from scratch, set the Survey's showQuestionNumbers property to "onpage":

const surveyJson = {
  // ...
  "showQuestionNumbers": "onpage"
}

If you want to hide question numbers, set the same property to "off":

const surveyJson = {
  // ...
  "showQuestionNumbers": "off"
}

Questions that require an answer are marked with an asterisk *. You can use the Survey's requiredText property to set another symbol or specify an explanatory text string:

const surveyJson = {
  // ...
  "requiredText": "!"
}

You can arrange the question title, number, and required mark in different sequences. To do this, specify one of the questionTitlePattern property values as shown in the following code:

const surveyJson = {
  // ...
  "questionTitlePattern": "numTitleRequire", // 1. Question Title *
  "questionTitlePattern": "numRequireTitle", // 1. * Question Title  
  "questionTitlePattern": "numTitle",        // 1. Question Title
}
