Showing an experiment on multiple screens

Psyku

Hello Opensesame fellows,

I want to conduct an experiment with two persons working on one experiment at the same time. For this purpose I want to start an experiment and it shall be shown on two screens. The screen shouldn't be duplicated. It should be extendet. One participant shall see 50% of the experiment and the other shall see the other 50% on the other screen. It is important that the data is measured by one experiment / programm (no two computers possible).

Greetings

Hi,
If the main screen is the left one, it might be sufficient to change the width of the experiment to the combined width of both screens (you can set this when you click on the first item in in the overview area). Then of course, you have to design your displays in a way, that left and right half show what they're supposed to show.

Does this make sense?

Hi eduard,
thanks for the answer. I changed the resolution to the compined resolution of the two screens. But when I start the experiment, it just shows it on the left screen in fullscreen. Is there a feature to "unlock" the second screen?

... Ok i just started it as "windowed" and now it works. Would be better if participants can't see the window frames, but better than no two screens
