"question" field support various drupal input format but the "input format" collapse which allows to choose input format (full html, filtered html etc) is not placed in the proper location, currently it appears after title and menu setting elements. Refer snapshot for better understanding. Attached is a patch which tries to add weight and order them properly. I would like to know your thoughts before committing this.

turadg commentedThat Input Format field is really heavy visually. I think it's good to put the input format next to the field it operates on, but it's also somewhat bad to separate the title too much. On balance, I think reordering as you propose is a good idea. (Though this patch does more than that, reformatting much of the code. I don't object to that but it would be better as a separate patch so people can review better what is changing.)
I'll take this opportunity though to propose that we find a way to shrink the Input Format widget. It doesn't need all that visual space. Wouldn't a
be better, with a popup help? The user only needs all that explanation once, and then they know the difference. We could use the Popup API for the help. Can we just theme these or would it require editing some other module's code?

sivaji_ganesh_jojodae commentedI agree with you. Yeah popup help using advanced help module [1] will be good. Views and other drupal module makes use of advanced help.
