    Workbench (default):

    Choice

    • Disable Selection on Incompatibilities: Display of the incompatibility within a checkbox by graying out the answers.

    Questionnaire (Default):

    Logical link between checkboxes (OR vs. AND relationship)

    The setting of the OR or AND relationship determines how the answers selected by the user are linked to each other.

    With an OR relation, the recommended result contains at least one of the selected properties. The following example deals with the color selection of a car. The selector user has selected the color options green and yellow:

    The result is cars in the colors yellow, green or yellow-green patterned.

    With an AND relation, the recommended result contains a combination of the selected properties. The cars are therefore yellow-green patterned (i.e. yellow and green) when the yellow and green options are selected. The platform sorts out yellow and green cars because they only have one of the selected colors.
