Rating
What is a Rating Field?
The Rating Field enables users to rate your field using custom icons.
For instance, if you have an Applicant Tracking System application, you can create a Rating Field for interviewers/HR to rate applicants.
Field Options
Name
This setting allows you to name your rating field. For instance, "Applicant Rating" or "Service Rating".
Description
This setting allows you to optionally provide a brief description of this field for your own reference.
Number of Stars
This setting allows you to select the number of stars (or other selected icon) to display as your rating scale. By default the Number of Stars is set to 5, meaning five stars will display on the rating scale by default.
If you would like to change the number of stars to display as your rating scale, you can choose from other common rating scale options including 3, 4, and 10.
For instance, if you would like to prompt customers to rate your services on a scale of 1-10, you would select the number 10 as the number of stars to display as your rating scale.
Enable Reset
This setting allows you to choose whether or not you would like to enable users to clear their rating selections within a form. By default the Enable Reset setting is set to Yes, meaning rating fields on a form will automatically include a button that when clicked will clear the rating selection.
Default Icon
By default, Rating Fields use the filled star (⭐) icon to rate fields. If you wish to change the rating icon, you can select an alternative icon from the list or click on the Custom button to select a custom icon.
Icon Colors
This is where you can select the icon color that will display with rating selections. If no color is selected, the default Black color will be used to display rating selections.
Add New Color Rule
Click the Add New Color Rule button to create rules to display specific icons and colors based on the rating value selected.
Rating Field Restrictions
Rating Fields will display as icons in most, but not all, locations throughout a Tadabase Application. In some situations, the Rating Field may output as a number.
