Change if the required indicator is displayed

Overview

The default for variables that are set up as ‘required’ is to display an asterisk ( * ) next to the variable. That asterisk can be hidden. If an asterisk is hidden, the variable is still ‘required' and not entering a value will show the variable group as incomplete.
