Attribute Picker Question
Overview
An Attribute Picker Question allows the end user to view and select from a multi-value attribute of an asset and use these values to populate elements in the template.
An Attribute Picker Question may be associated to an existing Asset Picker in the template or exist as an independent question. For more information about Asset Pickers, see section 5.7.
For example, you have an Asset type for cars. Each asset has a Vehicle Attributes field with multiple values that describe each car, such as "Sleek" or "Sporty", etc. The Asset Picker in the template allows the user to choose a specific car. When this is selected, then the associated Attribute Picker Question displays the multi value Vehicle Attributes as a list, allowing the user to select from this, so that these can also appear on the template.
The template author can also specify if entries in the Attribute Picker list are to be automatically selected or if there is a limit to the maximum number of items that may be selected.
