We don’t like to bore. We don’t want to be repetitive. Communicating in the same old ways is boring and doesn’t engage people. We do it differently. We annihilate boredom. We create things the brain likes to consume because they stimulate it.

Do you want to customize your branching scenario? Here are some tips:

Before editing the branching scenario itself, edit in the outline first. This way you’ll get an overview and know which questions and answers go on each page.
When editing, follow the order of the pages, from the first page or question until you reach the final pages.

Take a look at the structure of this branching scenario. Each page has a number associated with it, contains a question, and leads to several answer options.If on page 4 they choose option A, they go to page 5.But if they choose option B, they go to page 6, which contains a different question.This branching scenario is set up so that if you keep the structure the way it is, there’s no need to edit the interactivity or connections between pages. But you can also modify them. For example, imagine you want to add an option C to the question on page 5, and if they choose this option, they skip to the question on page 10. You’ll just need to set up the 'Go to page' interactivity from option C so that it jumps directly to page 10.As you can see, the most important thing when creating your branching scenario will be planning it well and assigning a number to each page before beginning to edit it. This way, you’ll be able to modify the connections very easily.
