        !             4: 
1.1       raeburn     5: To create a new radio button response, place the cursor directly inside a problem, 
                      6: and use the ``One of N statements'' response template. This creates a basic radio button response.
                      7: 
                      8: \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{daxeradio}
                      9: 
                     10: Response elements in general represent a user interface to let students enter a response.  
                     11: In the case of a radio button response, it will turn into radio buttons (one for each foil), 
                     12: and a single choice is possible.
                     13: 
                     14: To remove a foil, move the cursor over it, and click on the red X. 
                     15: To move a foil, drag-and-drop the foil's grip icon (to the left of the foil).
                     16: 
                     17: This simplified user interface to create radio button responses has many limits: 
                     18: for instance, it is not possible to create two true foils and let LON-CAPA choose one of them randomly to display.  
                     19: For that, one has to switch to the \textit{advanced} mode with the button on the top of the element block.  
                     20: The advanced UI is also necessary to force a foil to be at the top or bottom.  
                     21: It is also necessary to display different hints based on the student choice.  
                     22: But it could be convenient to start with the simple UI and only switch to advanced to add these options.  
                     23: The advanced UI reveals the elements inside the response element, and all the attributes, 
                     24: so that all LON-CAPA features are available.
