change wording in dialog box

    change wording in dialog box

    After the set duration for a scale response item expires, a dialog box appears stating, "The time limit for this question has passed." Is there a way to change this wording?

    Thanks,

    Kyle

    Yes, you can change message text--see if this helps:

    Another question: can I change the title of the dialog box? Currently the dialog box that appears when the time limit expires for a scale response item is titled "Time Limit." We want to change this to make it more relevant to our design.

    Thanks,

    Kyle

    Yes, by changing message #115 in your substitute.txt file:

    115,"Time Limit", title of time expired message boxes
