Reverse Category Scales

Starting with version 0.2.5 beta you can choose the scale direction for each category individually.

The default scale direction is ranging from 0 = red/bad to 10 = green/superb. This is usually used to rate things like mood or activity.
Reversed scales range from 0 = green/superb/none to 10 = red/bad/much. This is usually used to rate things like anxiety or nervousness.


STEP BY STEP:
Reverse a scale

  1. Open the Edit Category Dialog (Settings -> Categories -> Select one Category -> Tap the Edit Symbol [Pen] on the top right)
  2. Check the Reverse Scale Box
  3. You will be asked if you want to convert all existing data of that category to opposite values (recommended). Example: High anxiety of 2 will become an 8. That way your previous records are being automatically adapted to the reversed scale. If you tap NO your previous records stay untouched.
  4. Tap SAVE
