  • Simple + Continuous Numeric + Text/Boolean:
  • Expression + Continuous Numeric:
    • because the product attributes in "Expression" will be selected in the Answer Options and "Continuous numeric" do not support "normal" Answer Options 

  • Automatic + Continuous Numeric:
    • because the 1:1 mapping can be very large and unclear for decimals numbers
    • furthermore no step size is configurable

  • Automatic + Boolean:
    • Boolean attributes only contains two values and a 1:1 mapping is not very useful in this case.

  • All Range Selectables:
    • Without and enabled "Continuous Numeric" the range selection is only allowed for "Ordered" types.
