BUG: If printing a form (as pdf) from Preview (Enketo), The asterisk for required = true are not printed, at east not for text and integer types. But the asterisk is printed correctly for acknowledgement type
Steps to Reproduce
See attached xls example and screenshots.
Expected behavior
The asterisk (required) should be printed for required = true, for all types. Like it is shown in Enketo/Preview and KoBoCollect.
This is an essential information for using the print-out as (paper) back-up for surveys and monitoring.
Actual behavior
See screenshots. Asterisk (required) is NOT printed for integer and text types. (Probably also not for other types.) But is correctly printed for acknowledge type.
Screenshots (Preview)
(This last screenshot, with the error messages also shows a slightly different position of the asterisks between acknowledge type and the other types. Might be related to the BUG above?)
@Kal_Lam
Good afternoon,
Let us keep this as a BUG report, please. As you can see in the example, the asterisk works well (is printed) like expected for acknowledge type, but NOT for other types like text, integer etc.
Kind regards
Dear @Kal_Lam, Thanks! : relieved:
Is there already a link to trace the issue (GitHub)?
I would appeciated as general rule for the pdf print feature: Every UI content as show (e…g. required asterisk) is printed also…
@wroos, I’m guessing given your advanced knowledge that you’re already aware of guidance hints, but in case anyone else urgently needs a way to include instructions in the printed version of a form, those could be an option (this was suggested by an Enketo developer).
