Hello, Chad.
In the "Manage Dynamic Questions" -> "Question Validation" area, I find that the wordings in the following 2 options are rather confusing:
* Required Field Text
- help text: "Select the text that will appear by requires fields."
* Required Field Error (i.e. *)
- help text: "Select the text that will display to the right of the field as an error. Typically this would be an * symbol."
The help text sounds like if one specifies an * in the "Required Field Error (i.e. *)" option, then the * would appear to the right of the required field. But this is not what actually happens. What actually happens is that the * would need to be specified in the "Required Field Text" option in order for that to happen. And the text that is specified in the "Required Field Error (i.e. *)" option becomes an error message indicating what is required and it appears on the top of the questions block.
I found this out after spending much time scratching my head and experimenting. I am wondering whether things were crossed/mixed-up during the development.
