| Page Title | Text that appears in header of published page | Text | \\ |
| Instruction | Content that appears in the left pane or at the top of the page (depending on Panel width) | Text+ (Toolbar) | Use this to give the context or instructions for the task. Other content (e.g. images, audio, video) can be embedded here. |

| Panel Width | {Small/**Medium**/Large/Full} Dimension of the right panel (which includes the Question and the Confirm button) | Drop- down | **Full **puts all the content in one pane. Experiment with this setting to take account of dimensions of content in each panel. |

Refer to the [[:optional_properties|General Optional Properties]] page if necessary.

There are **no page-specific Optional Properties** for this page type.  There is **only one Language Option**, which allows you to change the text on the Confirm button, the button the learner clicks on to submit the answer and move to the destination page.

Click on **New Answer**  to create the first answer option. You need to add a New Answer for each of the options related to your question.
