Sphinx IQ

Organisation of objects

The properties of an object allow to organise and personalize the content of an object. There are four accesses to open the properties of analysis :

  • In the banner, tab Home, click on the button Object properties
  • In the banner, tab Format, click on the button Properties, in the group Object
  • Right-click on the object to modify, then select Modify the format
  • Double-click on the object to modify

The different objects of analysis (one-way table, cross table, composed table,…) and the different multimedia objects (image, form, video,…) have many common properties.

  • The tab Content allows to manage the data treated by the object of analysis. You can choose to activate, or not, the display of the table and/or the graph linked to data, the name of the object, the references to variables, and add a description. The selection of one or many analysed variables may also be modified via this tab. In the case of an analysis containing only one variable, the selection of this one is done through the drop-down menu Variable. The button points2 allows to edit the variable. In the case of an analysis treating many variables, it is possible to add (ajouter), delete (supprimer) and rank (ordonner) the variables of the object.
  • The tab Values (in the case of an analysis of only one variable) allows to display the statistic and numerical values wished.
  • The tab Tests (in the case of an analysis of many variables) allows to add statistic tests to the selected object. It is possible to color the significant boxes, display the details of the tests and the comments linked. The buttonpoints2 allows to modify the used thresholds in the tests of significance.
  • The tab Calculate allows to limit the results of the object to a specific profile, or apply a calculation rule for one variable (or several variables). These rules of calculation allow to ignore the non-responses/non-concerned, to regroup / rank / simplify the modalities, or carry out an action according to the type of variable (treat the scales in numbers, put the numbers in classes,…).
  • The tab Table allows to personalize the options of presentation of the table of the object.
  • The tab Graph allows to personalize the options of presentation of the graph of the object.
  • The tab Display allows to personalize the font, the rim and the background of the selected object and to choose an automatic setting of the table (predefined model of presentation)

Common properties on multimedia objects :

  • The tab Content allows to set the content of the object : enter the text. In the case of a text field ; select the image / the sound / the video / the animation, in the case of another multimedia object. In these cases, the tab content allows to apply some modifications on the multimedia object (size, control of the image,…).
  • The tab Settings allows to set the conditions of display (display according to a profile) or associate the object to an action (navigate amid pages, save, print,…).These options allow to make your graphical report more dynamic.
  • The tab Display allows, in the case of a text field, to personalize the font, the rim and the background of the selected object. In the case of another multimedia object, the tab display allows only to personalize the display of the rim of the object.

Definition of objects

A graphical report is a set of objects which give a representation of the responses of the survey via achieved analyses. The environment Customised graphical report of Sphinx iQ involves two big types of objects :

Objects of analysis

It is an analysis presenting a table and/or a graph, achieved from one (at minimum) or several variables. For example, for a cross analysis, the object contains two variables (one in line, one in column) and includes an associated table. If we decide to display the graph corresponding to the table, this one will be added to the object. So, it will be the same object but containing more elements. The modifications of the content of an object are defined via the properties of the object.

Multimedia objects

It is a multimedia element (text field, image, form, sound video, animation flash) which allow to enrich and personalize the graphical report. With a more advanced manner, actions may be associated to multimedia objects (actions of navigation, execution of actions (save, print, cancel, etc.) and become therefore objects allowing to write your graphical report.

The insertion of objects in the graphical report is done via the horizontal banner, in the tab Insertion. A definition box, specific to the object you wish to insert, is opened. For example, the definition box of one-way table will ask you to choose the variable to analyse, however you will be asked to select several variables for a cross or composed table. See the corresponding operating modes for furher details.
