Importing Version 3 Screens

Problem

I have content I have created in Question Tools Editor version 3, and I wish to transfer it to version 4.


Solution

Screens can be converted from version 3 to version 4. However, the import is imperfect. In short, some concepts, such as feedback, custom styles and results text order, just do not map over from version 3 to version 4.

At the beginning of the design process we had to decide whether to opt for an optimal format for representing screens in version 4, and compromise the conversion from version 3 to 4, or whether to opt for a suboptimal format and have improved conversion. We choose an imperfect import.

Nevertheless, the good news is that the import works, and with a little checking and arrangement imported screens will be ready to use.

In short, you will need the latest version of Question Tools Editor 3 so you can export the screens to the version 4 format, as well as Question Tools Editor 4, to complete the import. There is more detail together with screenshots in the help for Question Tools Editor 4.
