    Hi Brian,

     

    If you add more than 6 options, the choice question will turn into dropdown control automatically.

    Please note that the dropdown control only supports single choice.

     

    New update [July, 2018]

    We have enabled a settings in choice question, so you could manage "dropdown" by yourselves.

I second this suggestion.  In my classes, it would make data sorting easier if students could select what class period they were in (ex. B2 Honors World History, R3 AP Government). We also ask teachers to evaluate multiple students for NHS induction using the same form, and I would love to have them select a name from a drop-down box instead of relying on them to type the student's name accurately every time.
