3. 1. If adding a ‘Same Answer Type’ section:
   
   
   • Choose the ‘Answer Type’ and fill in details (details about the different answer types can be found below).

If adding a ‘Looping’ section.

• Select loop source;
  Select the loop item type that should be associated with the new section.

Note: Once a loop item type is selected a tag is added to the title of the section to represent it. This tag has the form of #[LoopItemTypeName]. In the submission page of the questionnaire this tag will be replaced with each of the available items of the selected type. The tag can be removed by ticking the relevant option.

If the new section being added is a descendant of a looping section that uses the same loop source, the loop item type selected has to be a descendant of the ancestor’s selected item type. The available item types are displayed in blue, unavailable types are displayed in red.
