Topic: add extra instructional text to an item
Piotr Chabot Stadhouders (Sep 28 2021 at 11:35):
What is the best way to add extra instructional text to an item?
For example, when having the text "What is your age?" and we want to add in a separate style "We want to know your age because...."
Do I have to put this text into the text and use some kind of styled text? Or is there an attribute for this? Or do I have to create a group?
Thanks,
Piotr

If the instructions should always be visible on the form, you can use item.type=display. If you want it behind a help button, you could create a child item with itemControl set to "help" (https://www.hl7.org/fhir/extension-questionnaire-itemcontrol.html.
