  • Hi Katana, The error message suggests that you're trying to run the experiment in OSWeb, which does not support form items. You can find an overview of supported functionality here: https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.3/manual/osweb/#supported-functionality P…
  • Hi Vincent, But sadly it does not work properly with my data. When calling eyelinkparser.parse on the folder containing my data it returns an empty list. Strangly it works fine with your example data. eyelinkparser.parser() returns a DataMatrix ob…
  • I apologize beforehand because I already posted this discussion under the tag OSWeb. Since I need to resolve the issue as soon as possible, I'll try to post this here as well. I understand that it's frustrating to be under time pressure and waiting …
  • Hi Jess, Could I use text input for the participant's response and if so how does the logger work with this type of input? The first option that comes to mind is to use a form_text_input item to let participants freely enter their response. Then yo…
  • Is it possible to get the median response time instead of avg_rt? (RTs are usually not normally distributed) Not without any scripting at all. But you could include a Python expression directly in, say, a feedback item. And then you could make use …
  • Hi Michal, I see, it actually does crash at some point, but indeed on files that don't exist. For example, it's looking for U2-1ab.jpg , but the file pool only contains U2-1ba.jpg . So it's a matter of carefully going through the file names! (There …
  • Hi Michal, For me, everything runs fine. Why don't you first update OSWeb and see if this resolves the issue? (The latest version is 1.3.5, and it contains some bugfixes.) The easiest way to do that is to grab the latest 3.3 prerelease of OpenSesame…
  • Hi Ananda, The IAT template that you're using is not compatible with OSWeb. An overview of functionality that is available in OSWeb, and an explanation of how to check whether your experiment is compatible, can be found here: https://osdoc.cogsci.nl…
  • Hi Michal, Two things come to mind: Are there differences in capitalization? I.e. Windows is not case sensitive, but the browser is. Are the image files included in the file pool? Cheers! Sebastiaan
  • Hi Christian, If I understand correctly, there are three fixed positions, and you want to vary which picture is presented where. Is that right? In that case, the easiest approach is probably to first draw three static images at these three locations…
  • @Katharina You can find the latest release of OSWeb as part of OpenSesame 3.3. Before we focus on debugging this, could you verify whether the error also occurs with OSWeb 1.3.5? https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.3/download/ If you're already using OpenSesa…
  • @MarkNieuwenstein Thanks for testing. @Daniel uploaded a new package and I hadn't updated the link on the documentation. (A slight miscoordination.) But the link is updated now! https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.3/download/
  • What am i missing? The actual error message ;-) This only the top part of the error message (Traceback). Could you post all of it?
  • Hi Sushiman, This is a know issue in OpenSesame 3.2, which you can work around as described here: https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.3/manual/stimuli/text/ Alternatively, you can use the latest 3.3. prerelease, in which this problem has been resolved! Cheers…
  • Hi Phoenix, The variable cursor_roi is a string in which each clicked element is separated by a semicolon (e.g. 'background;target'). You can use a Python-style run-if statement to check whether cursor_roi contains a certain value, for example to …
  • Hi Teki, This happens when Python crashes unexpectedly. This is not due to any bug in the experiment per se (but in one of the underlying Python libraries), and therefore it's difficult to solve. A more pragmatic solution might be to: Switch to anot…
  • Hi Atena, You have to be a bit more specific to get any useful help! What *exactly* do you want to accomplish, what have you tried so far, and why doesn't it work as you'd like it to? It would be useful to upload the experiment file here, including …
  • We will want to fix it for future studies, however. PupilLabs uses Python 2, so we would not be able to use the new version of OpenSeasme once it comes out. That doesn't matter! PupilLabs en OpenSesame each come with their own Python environment, an…
  • Hi, Older versions of OpenSesame did not make a distinction between Python crashing and the experiment ending successfully. So, given that you're running 3.1.2, I suspect that Python crashes at random moments during the experiment, and that this is …
  • Hi @pmandara, This issue is probably related to OSWeb, which is the software that actually runs the experiment. JATOS is the server software that stores data, generates links, etc. (The difference is a bit subtle, I appreciate that.) To narrow this …
  • Hi, I made sure garbage collection is disabled. You should uncheck the checkbox that says "Disable garbage collection". (I appreciate that the double negation is not very user friendly.) If the memory error then still occurs, then I would …
  • For data collected with OSWeb, you can use the OSWeb extension in OpenSesame to convert the JATOS data to .xlsx as described here: https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.3/manual/osweb/#downloading-and-converting-data If this doesn't work you, could you describ…
  • Hi Alexandra, So, what now? I've been searching for an answer in other discussions and I've read that the 'form_...' should be supported in the new version of OSweb allready? Is this true, can there be another explanation why my experiment doesn't w…
  • Hi Oscar, The easiest way to change the font size is to change the font in the General Properties tab of the experiment. But this will change the font size everywhere. To change the font for specific strings of text, you can use HTML/ CSS styling, l…
  • Hi Sharon, What browser (and browser version) are you using exactly? Most browsers provide a console where you can see error messages. For example, for Firefox you can access this with Ctrl+Shift+K and for Chrome you can access this with Ctrl+Shift…
  • This might also be a good moment to try out the upcoming 3.3 release! https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.3
  • Hi Andrew, My best guess is that some files got corrupted when installing the program. Does re-installing OpenSesame fix the issue? Cheers! Sebastiaan PS. OpenSesame 3.2 is based on 32 bit Python, which is why the error message mentions a 'Win32' ap…
  • Hi Ivan, This sounds like something you might be able to implement with Psynteract, which is a set of OpenSesame extensions for interactive experiments, developed by @Pascal and @mezzopiano . https://github.com/psynteract/psynteract-os Cheers! Sebas…
  • Hi, There are two ways to do that. The first would be to simply set the repeat value of the loop to some value < 1 so that only a selection of cycles are executed. The second would be to use a break-if statement to stop when the counter of the tr…
  • Hi Eva, The first step would be to figure out how the TriggerBox sends signals to the stimulation PC. Is it also connected through a serial-to-usb converter? (I suspect so.) If so, then the next step would be to figure out what kind of message the T…
