Adapt_framework: MCQ/GMCQ - properties.schema _shouldBeSelected: 'false' is a better default?

Created on 18 Jan 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: adaptlearning/adapt_framework

It's been mentioned that it might make sense for the _shouldBeSelected property should be defaulted to false rather than true. The rationale for this is that there are generally more false choices than true options.

Any thoughts on this?

question good first bug

Yep makes sense to me.

Also, I have to say having (finally!) started to use the authoring tool a bit more, I'm really preferring the use of the Checkbox input type for Boolean properties like this... Why make the user click twice when one click will do the job?

Actually it would be nice to see an option for a switch control like you get on iOS but appreciate I'm going way off topic now ;-)
