[solved] How to log the response to a form_multiple_choice item?

edited March 2016 in OpenSesame

(This might be an [OSX] issue)

This must seem like a stupid question, but I really can’t figure it out.

I have a sequence in a loop that plays a sound, collects a response, THEN shows a form_multiple_choice item IF the sound was a specific one (‘run if’ in the sequence). All of this works, but there is no log of the multible choice response.

I tried setting the logger to ‘Automatically detect and log all variables’ – it’s just not in there.
When I set it to ‘run if = always’, it appears in every cycle, but still doesn’t get logged.
When I put the same form_multiple_choice item into the default template (just after ‘welcome’), the response does get logged (though apparently as variable ‘response’ in item ‘welcome’?!?!?).

So, is it because it’s in a loop? Is there a fix to this?

    Hi Darvid,

    Have you tried manually adding the variable to the logger? Or perhaps there is another variable called 'response' in your experiment that overwrites it, so maybe renaming the variable could be an option? Other than that, it might be an issue specific to OSX (which i can not reproduce).

    Thanks, Laurent, for your reply.
    There was indeed another variable called "response", but I couldn't figure out how to change that. Meanwhile, it turns out that in the latest version (3.0.6) it works. It creates a log variable called "form_response" that logs the responses I wanted :-)
