Charting Has Arrived!

The Summary Screen can now display the results of each question in 4 different ways:
  • Bar Charts
  • Line Charts
  • Pie Charts
  • Textual Summary
Each is fairly self-explanatory but there are some additional special features too:
  • Some answer formats allow the data to be summarized in a "Simple" or a "Weighted" manner.
  • The Freeform answer format, which contains purely textual data, has its own way of summarizing the responses.
  • There's also a "No Chart" option. This is for those circumstances when none of the summary methods adequately displays the collected data; rare, but possible.
The particular chart settings you choose for each question will be remembered when you reopen the poll again, thus allowing you to tailor each poll precisely the way you want.

These new features are contained in Alpha Version 1.3. If you don't yet have access to it then please sign up for our Alpha Testing program.
