Name
The name of the question, a very short description of question, used sometimes for
listing the questions (also for Moodle compatibility).

limit of questions that belong to a given category.
By default, a question belong to "standard" category.
Weight
The weight of the question, used for calculating final mark. How the final mark is
calculated, is explained in the chapter "Add a weight to the questions"
Time to answer
If in the "Properties" of quiz, into tab "Questions", you choose "Only one question for
page in HTML quiz", then you can optionally add a time to answer to a question. At the end of this time, the quiz automatically go to the next question.
Text format
Text format can be regular (RTF), HTML or plain text.
The "plain text" option leaves every character unchanged, the "HTML" format treats
the "great than" and "less than" sign (< and >) as an HTML tag.
With the "regular" text format, can be changed the family font, the font size, some
others text attributes (bold, italics, underline) and both foreground and background
text color.
Other texts
They are the text to display before the text of question, the text to display after
the last text of answer and the remark to question.
The following figure shows how they are displayed in HTML quiz:

pressing the "OK" button). Similar to "remark to answer" (see the chapter "local
properties of answers"), but this remark is visualized always and not depend on
