Adding media images next to mulitple select questions

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-HJ9FyHmb7ZI/VT51jQXUg7I/AAAAAAAAAU0/mwNjf5VHyGk/s1600/IMG_20150427_123233.jpg
I'm try to recreate a form using ODK Build and some of the questions
include images as in the attached screenshot. What's the best way to do
this using ODK Build? Is it possible? I have about 20 of these forms to
create and they all have different images.

To do this, create a scan of this original paper form, then cut out each
individual question text and image, saving that as a separate image, and
specifying this image (that now contains the text and the graphic) as the
image to display in ODK Collect.

The label text would be blank (or you might need to use a space to keep
Build and/or XLSForm happy). And ODK Collect should just use the image in
the display.

We use this technique for translations into glyphs/languages that are not
supported in Android.

Thanks Mitch.

How do you specify an image as the image to display in ODK Collect? That's
what I'm having trouble with.

Hmm. I don't know if you can in ODK Build; if you can, it isn't obvious.

In XLS files, (using XLSForm to do the conversion), you would put the image
filename under the "image" column header.

All files must reside in one directory (no nested sub-directories) and that
directory will be named formname-media on the device if the file that
XLSForm produces is formname.xml; the formname.xml and formname-media
folder need to be in the same directory. If you do that, you can use the
FormUploader to upload the form and images to ODK Aggregate.
