Format Variable Prompts and Layout Text in Builder

You can format the text that appears throughout your interview. For example, you may want to apply bold formatting to a question prompt, or use a heading-style information cell in your layout. 

The following are examples of some of the text you can format:

• A variable's Question Prompt or Question Help. This includes both object models, object variables, and standalone variables. 
• Options in a Selection variable.
• Information cell in a variable's Layout.

To do this:

1. Open the Builder Online Workspace. (See Accessing the Builder Online Workspace for help.) 
2. Click the Designer tab.
3. Find the text-based option for the element you want to adjust. For example, to format a variable prompt, edit the variable and find the Question Prompt field.
4. Add your content to the field, based on the following information:

   Format	Example Markup
   Heading style	# Heading Text (for Heading 1 level) ## Heading Text (for Heading 2 level) ### Heading Text (for Heading 3 level)
   Bold	**This is the bold text** This is the **bold text**
   Italic	*This is the italic text* This is the  *italic text*
