  Hi,

  How did you set it up?

  I haven't done these kinds of experiments myself but I would set it up like this: 1. you crate a loop table with your rows being the stimuli you want to display at each step. So if you name your columns frame1, frame2, and so on your frame1 for the example above you would write here "Alice*******", for the frame 2 you write "**went*****" and so on.

  the you create the sketch pads, as many as you have frames. And here you have to insert the variable, so [frame1] that will display the text. You write this type of code in the window below the sketchpad (It is easier than writing it in the sketchpad itself, I think): draw textline center=1 color=black font_bold=no font_family=mono font_italic=no font_size=16 html=yes show_if=always text="[frame1]" x=0 y=-256 z_index=0

  Then set the sketchpad duration to keypress.

  let me know if it works!

  Thanks Marta,

  I have tried your method already. However, I have too many sentences. I wonder whether there is an approach to solve this problem with codes (as I use B-language to control the program to do this in Eprime).

  If not, I will turn to that approach~

  Best

  Hi @hyena

  
  

  Thanks for your interest in OpenSesame. I think the attached script should do the trick. See the comments in the Python inline_script items for a bit of explanation. You can define your sentences in the item called 'block_loop'.

  
  

  Hope this helps!

  
  

  Cheers,

  Thanks Lotje,

  I can run the program. It is amazing.

  I have one more question about it. Could I logger the time when I click during the sentence.

  For example, could I get the time from "Alice*******" to "**went*****"

  Or from the beginning of the first part to the keyboard response

  Many thx

  Hi @hyena

  
  

  Glad to hear it works. :)

  If you move the logger item one level down, that is, placing it right after the keyboard_response item, it logs the response times of every click.

  Thanks, Lotje,

  I do this as you recommended. I think this way solve my problem now.

  And I meet another problem now:

  The program cannot run on the full screen, but other programs can. Do you think I need to change some variance in the program?

  Thanks again for your help

  Best for you~

  Hi @hyena ,

  
  

  Glad to hear it works!

  I can't reproduce the issue with running the program in full screen. Do you get an error message?

  
  

  Cheers,
