select all and change differences

[OtherSystems]

At the moment it is quite hard to fill in forms with many options, even if most are the same. Would it be possible to set all moments in the date-poll to yes/no, and then change the moments that differ? Could save a lot of work filling in the date-polls.

Thanks

Sorry for not replying back earlier. The issue you are describing is one of the most critical ones from user experience perspective. I know that pain point for every poll that contains more than five answers. But it's a complex one in my opinion.

I would expect the way of selecting the answers to make a difference for the results. E.g. it's way more likely that people keep the default selection.

If I get your suggestion right, you don't want to add a default value but provide a button to set all answers to yes or no like a button to check all checkboxes in all rows of a table. I fear that it's very difficult to come up with an intuitive user interface for something like that.

For that reasons I thought about adding another configuration option on poll creation which controls if there is a default value and which answer it is. This would put the burden on the creator of the poll which most likely know best if it makes sense for this specific poll to start with yes or no or without any default value at all. But there was also the feedback that the creation of a poll is already to complex and requires to much choices... 😦
