Choose bar chart instead of pie chart when you want to  
Written by onderzoekspraktijk the 19 Nov 09 at 23:49. Related project: 1.x all. Implemented
Any question that totals to 100% gets a graphic representation in the form of a pie chart.
I tried to change the code to make it possible to choose a bar chart instead.
I did this because the pie chart is terrible to intepret when it depicts more than 3 variables. It sure looks nice, but it does not convey information in a nice manner: it flabbergasts.
(This link tells it much better than I ever could:http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/08-21-07.pdf)

Selected solution (#1): chart chooser parameter in the survey fields on top of each survey

Of-course more importantly it needs some coding of the used software. I tried it but it is beyond me.

Store assessment results for further evaluation  
Written by hardzsi the 26 Sep 09 at 15:37. Related project: 1.x all. Implemented
The evaluated TOTAL assessment (sum) is nicely displayed at the end of the survey - which can only be seen by the user who filled the survey in.
However, this result is not stored at the answers database. After a lot of user filled the survey in, i would like to see the sums given for all of these users.
Now i have to export the answers and should repeat the assessment / summarize in Excel before i can see these TOTAL sums.

Selected solution (#1): store all the existing assessment placeholders at the end of answer database

Store at least TOTAL. If possible, PERC and ASSESSMENT_CURRENT_TOTAL too.

Selected solution (#2): Don't store, just calculate for export
Written by c_schmitz the 8 Aug 11 at 13:22.
I think it is not the best way to store a score that may be subject to changes when editing a response. Best would be to calc the values during export.
