Issue: Mouse clicking can select wrong answers
Hi, I just completed an exam on Microsoft Forms and noticed that it was very easy to accidentally click the wrong answer, and one of my answers was marked wrong as a result. How does it happen? The current implementation allows users to click the whole line rather than just the radio button or checkboxes. Since I sometime click inadvertently on the screen, it will change my answer to the wrong one even if I didn't intend to click an answer. If you only allow clicking on the radio button or checkbox instead of the full line, this wouldn't happen. Thanks!

Assign an email adress on an option in MS Form
Hi. New here. I just started using MS Form and Workflow to automate requesting study for new projects. I made a form where you will type in project name, location, system to use, etc. Two of the options in this form are the names of the Salesman and the Draftsman that will do the project that the salesman will assign to. My problem is that upon completion of the form, workflow has the flow of: when a new respose is submitted -> Get response -> Create a task in planner -> Send an email. For the create task, I want the draftsman that will be picked in the form will be the one assigned in the planner including the salesman who filled up the form. Next is sending a custom email, with dynamic content highlighting the response on the form and sending that email to the draftsman that the salesman picked in the MS Form. Is it possible to have this kind of flow? If yes, please shed some light on how I can accomplish this. Thanks bunch.How to get an attachment provided via FORM added to Sharepoint List
I've created a FORM that has a number of questions, including the option for a user to add an attachment. Then via FLOW all answers to the questions are getting added to a Sharepoint List. Everything is working great except the attachments are not getting stored. 1. What are the steps to enable the attachment a user provides in the FORM to get added to a Sharepoint list via FLOW? 2. How do I add an Attachment column in Sharepoint List (maybe this is part of my issue) Any other thoughts? Thanks for the help.Revamped Forms experience is now available for commercial users

Can IT Admins Block Anonymous Responses in Microsoft Forms?
Is it possible for admins to configure Microsoft Forms so that users cannot create an option for anonymous responses? For example, if there is a concern that someone might submit inappropriate responses, admins would want the ability to trace who provided the response. From my understanding, an anonymous response is completely untraceable.MS Forms: multi-select checkbox answers in grid questions
Is there a way in MS Forms to add a multi-select checkbox grid for survey questions? I'm aware of the existing Likert scale grid option but that only allows for selecting one response in each row. I want respondents to able to select more than one option in each row. Google Forms has this feature. If it is not available in MS Forms, how does one go about submitting feedback to have this feature added to Likert scale questions?
