  Hi Fotis,

  have you seen this discussion? It looks like it could be relevant for your problem.

  Good luck.

  Hi @eduard

  Thank you for your response, but I'm afraid the solution of repeating the entire trial significantly changes the design of the experiment, and is not suitable for me.

  I don't need the whole trial to be repeated, I only need to restrict the mouse clicks on ROIs defined in a linked sketchpad.

  May I kindly suggest (@sebastiaan) that in a future version of OpenSesame you consider implementing this functionality?

  Until then I suppose i will need to implement this in python, using an inline script after the sketchpad:

  my_mouse = Mouse(buttonlist=[1,2], timeout=2000)
  my_mouse.flush()
  my_mouse.set_visible()
  
  while True:
    button,(x,y), time = my_mouse.get_click()
    if (x > -160 and x< -32 and y>-32 and y<32) or (x > 32 and x < 160 and y>-32 and y<32):
       break
  

  Thank you for your time,

  Fotis

  Hi Fotis,

  Great! That would have been my approach as well. However, if you wrapped the response in a separate loop, you could probably get away with the repeat_cycle approach from the old discussion. Instead of the entire trial, only the last response phase would be repeated. Well, at least that is my hunch, I haven't actually tried that.

  Good luck,

  Eduard
