  Hi Dror,

  I know that this can be a nasty problem. The most direct solution would be outside OpenSesame: http://www.cogsci.nl/forum/index.php?p=/discussion/1554/open-blocking-command-key#Item_2

  Good luck!

  Hi Dror,

  I think that Josh means the Windows (or Command) key, which you can disable as described under those links.

  But the Escape key is another matter. It's hardcoded in OpenSesame that it aborts the experiment. What exactly do you want to do? In OpenSesame 3.0, the experiment is paused when you press Escape, so if you just want to avoid participants from accidentally aborting the experiment, you could try that?

  Cheers,
  Sebastiaan

  My bad! I assumed a priori that any method to disable a key could also be applied to the escape key.
