Introduction

The survey settings menu allows users to edit different survey-related settings. The following survey settings are available by default:

In the screenshot above, two buttons are emphasized. They can be used by users to rearrange the survey settings menu dimensions. If you wish to rearrange the main survey settings menu, drag the right side of the menu to the left or to the right by clicking the three-dots. If you click the left arrowhead, the menu collapses and is minimized until the only a side menu with icons is left. To go back to the default view of the survey settings menu, click the right arrowhead located above the survey settings menu. Hover the mouse over each option to see what each icon does.

Note: The menu can be changed/edited from the Menu configuration and Menu entries configuration pages. They can be accessed from the LimeSurvey configuration dialog. We recommend that only advanced users edit menus.

The survey menu (located below the survey settings) is described here.

Overview

The overview page offers an overview of your survey. It is divided in two parts:

Overview toolbar: The functions from the toolbar allow you to start/stop the survey, check its logic, save & export it, add survey participants, and manually introduce survey participants' data (in the case in which you conduct an offline survey);

Survey summary: A short summary of your survey.

For a complete description, check the Overview panel wiki page.
