Statements

This element type allows you to display information to the user in a formatted way. This enables you to share information with users, instead of simply collecting information from them. Statements can display images as well as text, and they have full access to the Interaction references, so information can be dynamic.

A Statement can be the collation of information and decisions that have been achieved so far in the Interaction. Statements are often used as a summary tool to allow users to reevaluate their responses, or to illustrate the outcome of the Interaction in user terminology.
