Beta Testing Observation - Radio Button and Text Size

[kimburgia]

A lot of the patients we've been beta testing have been having trouble with the following:

1 - the text size. They've commented that it's hard to read, even if they have their glasses.

2 - the radio buttons are too small. They have trouble hitting the correct one, especially if they have larger fingers or shaky hands.

This will likely require a larger discussion before making a decision on what to do about this.

Enlarging is probably needed, but for those at clinic on ipad perhaps we should provide a stylus for selecting radios

1) Can we try full div select for choosing options? 2) Change div spacing for option selects?

Christa has an example of her solution at http://www.zedlov.com/ucsf/survey/survey1.html

@tsinha I had to spend hours yesterday getting this to work with redcap. The solution implemented by Christa was from http://ryanfait.com/resources/custom-checkboxes-and-radio-buttons/.

The redcap skip pattern code was not functioning, so I had to write redcap javascript inside of ryan's js library. This was a time-sink and a trip down the rabbit hole. Also, there may be other unknown issues (like not being able to do horizontal checkboxe/radiobuttons issue #19). Future upgrades of redcap will now be even more difficult.
