How to insert image


You can insert images in multiple choice question with following methods. Let’s walk you through each of them in details.



  • bulk import

  • drag and drop

  • copy and paste


1) Bulk import are supported in both desktop and mobile, with 5MB size limit per image. Images from OneDrive, local or Bing search are all accessible. You could bulk select 5 images each batch and continue to add another batch if needed.

Image customization


Last but not least, image resizing is enabled for further customization if needed. On default status, uploaded images will be auto center-cropped fitting to the predefine border. If that is not yet best fitting what you expected, you can zoom in/out to resize image or drag the images to change focus through the image editor.

Data visualization


Images will be displayed when users create & preview the survey in design time, when responders fill the survey or when the owner wants to check details in individual result page. The rest of other cases (such as analysis view in response tab or data in Excel worksheet), there is only text showing up as representations of these choices.
