Hi @eduard and @Sara_MC , Yes, I believe it's something specific to Mac OS that the app launcher always starts the same instance. But also on Mac OS you can start multiple instances of OpenSesame through Menu → File → New window. — Sebastiaan

Just to avoid people getting unnecessarily worried. No, if you have terminal access to the server you can read everything in the H2 database. Use a MySQL or MariaDB for encrypted content. This is true, but the key point is that people do not have te…

Hi @MartinS , Thanks for pointing this out! It's a bug, which should be fixed in the next maintenance release (4.0.15) that you can install through the automatic updater. — Sebastiaan

Hi @Ana_C , This script indeed doesn't work properly anymore because the way that text is rendered has changed since this post (it changed from 3.2 to 3.3). To work around this, you need to draw one word at a time, rather than the entire string at o…

Hi @Tryfonas_Bikos , The correct variable indeed refers to the last response, which I assume is what you're running into. However, each response item also maintains a correct_[item name] variable that only relates to that item. If I understand corr…

Hi @SpacePenguins , A bit clunky, but you can place the touch_response inside a loop-sequence structure, and then use a repeat_cycle item to repeat the touch_response until a particular criterion is met. Like so: https://forum.cogsci.nl/uploads/…

Hi @Uros , If I understand correctly, and to simplify a long story, your main question is how you can send a trigger exactly once and at a predictable moment in the context of coroutines . Is that correct? The main thing to understand is that the ru…

Hi @rrr , The intermediate tutorial for OpenSesame 4.0 can be found here: https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/4.0/tutorials/intermediate/ — Sebastiaan

Hi @regina09 , I think we were able to implement your suggestion. Good to hear! But I actually noticed another problem: for task 1 the list of items is random even though it set to sequential within the loop. Do you know why this may happen? and Or …

Hi @stoney , I see what you mean, yes. Question: I see the instructions in the little thumbnail, but can you actually reactivate the experiment and see those instructions full screen? I bet you can't right? I suspect that the window thumbnail may si…

Ping @Bob , the developer of these plugins.

Hi @stoney , Sorry for the late reply, we had few participants and everything ran smoothly for a while after I turned off all the Windows notifications I could find. Good to hear! The weird thing is, if it was just minimising the presentation windo…

Hi @ErikK , A number of years ago I indeed ran OpenSesame on a Raspberry Pi. Back then that was a bit of a challenge, but nowadays I think it should be much more straightforward, and I don't think the exact model matters (although I don't have a rec…

Hi @IsaacP , PsychoPy, which is a Python library and application for stimulus presentation used by OpenSesame and PyGaze, can indeed be tricky to install because of dependency issues. The details depend very much on the specifics of your system, and…
-
Hi @vinibini and @eduard , I suspect the warning (which is likely harmless and has to do with the application not being able to activate dark mode) is unrelated to the fact that the experiment doesn't start. Indeed, as @eduard says, if you provide m…

Hi @lt_kn_char , Can you confirm that you are running the (at time of writing) latest version of OSWeb, which is 2.1.0? If yes, then I'll look into it. If not, then please first update and see if this resolves the issue. — Sebastiaan
-
Hi @marija123 , This is a known that has already been fixed. If you run the updates through the automatic updater within OpenSesame this will be resolved. — Sebastiaan

Noted!

Hi @Wouter , This is because you're running Firefox as a snap package, which doesn't have access to the local file system. If you copy-paste the local URL into a different browser, you'll see that it works. Unfortunately there is no way (that I know…

Hi @Bangele , There was indeed a bug in a specific version of PyGaze. This has been fixed in 0.8.8. which you can install either through the Cogscinl PPA, anaconda, or by getting the latest source here. Hope this helps! — Sebastiaan

Hi @ypark133 , Will I encounter any issues running the experiment if I update OpenSesame? Well, assuming that you're running the experiment online, and it has already been uploaded, updating OpenSesame on your own computer will not impact the experi…
-
Hi @DavidTU , I have seen this error before, but it is very mysterious, and I never understood what causes or triggers it. It seems to come somewhere deep down from the Python internals. As a workaround, you can first try to run all updates to the a…
-
Hi @Sara_MC , The inline_html item is essentially a regular HTML page and thus allows you to embed JavaScript. Through this route you can use setTimeout() to programmatically click on a submit button after a certain interval. Below you can see how…

Hi @ypark133 , There was a bug in an earlier version of the OSWeb extension that crashed on text files with non-ASCII characters, such as Hangul. If you run the updates provided by the automated updater in OpenSesame, this should be fixed. Good luck…

Hi @Wouter and @eduard , Thanks for spotting these issues. Both the color-conversion issue with the legacy and xpyriment backends and the size issue with the psycho backend are related to OpenSesame, not PsychoPy. I will publish a bugfix release (4.…
-
Hi @MartinS , I just ried it again, and the updated example plugin does (also) work. One thing that comes to mind though, is that you haven't installed the plugin as a Python package but rather using the old-style way of specifying a plugin folder, …
-
Hi @rania_tach , Yes, this is a known issue with the media_player_mpy : the psycho backend often doesn't work. The only solution is, as you've found already, to use either the legacy or expyriment backend. If the timing is off with these backends, y…
-
Hi @regina09 , Ah ok, I see. If you are running your task on the desktop (and can thus use the Python API), you can make use of the responses object, which keeps a history of all responses. Exactly how to use this depends on the specifics of your t…
-
Hi @MartinS , I assume that the plugin example is the bare minimum that should load in OS4 out of the box. Am I assuming this correct? Yes but there's also a dummy GUI class by way of example. When I load the example, it comes with the error: Based …
-
Hi @regina09 , If I understand correctly, you're running to the issue that the variable response is always set to the last response, which in your case that would be the response given under 2 while doing task 3. Is that correct? If so, you can pro…
