[solved] Presenting a stimuli before the "real stimuli"
Hi!
I have my experiment running and presenting my stimuli as it should do. However, now I have the need to present a first stimuli before my real stimuli. It can be seen kind of as a distractor, but it will be more than one stimuli as well.
So I have let's say 30 stimuli, and I need to show before each of this 30 stimuli, another 30 stimuli (which will be distractors). All randomly assigned.
I tried to create a new sketchpad before my visual dot, creating a variable with the new 30 distractor stimuli, and assign it to the loop where I have the real stimuli. However, when I tried to do this, I got an error saying 'An empty string was passed to experiment.get_file()' 
Sorry for any confusion with so many stimuli...
Thanks!
Francisco

Hi all,
I sorted this problem of mine. I went through the design and included before my stimuli a new sketchpad. After that I created a new variable in the same loop I had for the first set of stimuli. With that, I get the distractor stimuli before the real case stimuli.
Thanks!
If anyone has the same problem and this was a bit confusing, let me know and I get about it in more detail!

Hi Francisco, great that you worked out the problem yourself!
