Hi Mitko, The GUI uses a different font engine than the back-ends, each of which in turn renders text slightly differently. I just tried it with a few different fonts, and, indeed, for some reason Deja Vu Sans is rendered much narrower during the e…
-
Hi, This all depends on how you present the text, and how you plan to analyze the data afterwards. Do you have the exact coordinates of where each letter is? Or do you simply text on a sketchpad, in which case you only know the center or top-left …
-
Hi, Generally speaking, you can present a sound with a sampler and simultaneously present a word with a sketchpad. However, it's not really clear from your description what exactly you want to do. Could you provide some more details? I.e. what do y…

Hi Yvette, Could you provide some more information? E.g., what happens exactly when the experiment ends early. Is there an error message in the debug window and/ or an opensesame.exe.log file (on Windows)? And if so, what's the error message? Detai…
-
Just at the very begging of the experiment in the prepare phase of an inline_script item should do the trick!
-
Thanks for the error message. That does indeed look like another font-related bug. I will include these fixes in 2.9.3, which I'll probably release somewhere in the next few weeks. These are actually the first new bugs that have been reported, and …

Hi, The folder that contains the file pool is available as exp.pool_folder, so you can get a list of all files in the pool like this (randomly shuffled): # Retrieve all files in the pool folder as a listimport osimport randomfname_list = os.listdi…
-
Hi, This is indeed a small bug: In the GUI the font size is specified in points, but during the experiment it is specified in pixels, as it should be. This is just a visual glitch, so you can safely ignore the fact that the GUI shows the font to b…

Hi @nakoli, I cannot reproduce this issue. Are you using the latest version of OpenSesame (2.9.2)? If so, could you describe a way to reliably reproduce the problem (from scratch, not in your specific experiment)? Cheers, Sebastiaan

Hi Nicolas, (Quote) Not directly, but you can merge the data files with DataMerger: * http://osdoc.cogsci.nl/usage/logging/#merging-multiple-data-files-into-one-large-file (Quote) Yes, you can disable the 'Automatically detect and log all variabl…

Glad to hear that you figured it out, and thanks for sharing!
-
Hi Nicolas, A visual-search paradigm, such as the Treisman & Gelade one, requires a bit of Python scripting. You won't be able to implement it using only a sketchpad, or at least not in an efficient way. I would recommend taking a look at these…

Hi Thomas, You'll want to take a look at this discussion: * http://forum.cogsci.nl/index.php?p=/discussion/144 Cheers! Sebastiaan
-
Hi Rotem, The backup folder is used for experiment files, not data. The data is saved at the location that you indicate at the start of the experiment, so that could be anywhere, although the most obvious choice would be the folder of the experimen…
-
Good to hear that you figured it out! I'm marking this as solved.
-
Hi, In short, the easiest way to set variables is with the loop item, after which you can refer to them with the square-bracket notation: [my_variable_name]. However, I would recommend first walking through one of the basic tutorials, in which thi…
-
Hi, With this setup, fixation3 is presented after the parallel item is finished (and by extension all the items within it). Apparently there is some delay in there, which is not surprising in itself. If you want to control the timing of the sketchp…
-
Hi Dirk, In principle, this is the correct way to draw a rectangle, but your question (or rather statement) is not specific enough to tell what's wrong. Could you provide some more details? What kind of error message do you get? What exactly do you…
-
Hi Samuel, In case you're still struggling with this (or for someone who encounters the same issue in the future): Have you tried switching to another backend, or playing around with the back-end properties? I don't know the details of how video pl…
-
Hi Hansika, Great! I added your task to the standard-tasks page on the documentation site: * http://osdoc.cogsci.nl/standard-tasks/#implicit-association-test-iat Feel free to submit additions and/ or changes. You can do this quite easily via the …
-
Haha, that's hilarious.
-
Hi Thomas, This error comes from the Python library of your EEG set-up (egi), so for a definitive answer it's best to ask the developers of that library. However, because the error message is quite informative, I'll venture a guess. It seems the E…
-
Hi Digo, There's no need to compile the .py to .pyc. Python will do that for you. So you can just put pytribe.py in the OpenSesame folder (assuming you're running from the official packages). Cheers, Sebastiaan
-
Hi Chiara, (Quote) The conditional statement only prevents the run phase from being executed. But the item is still prepared, and this can introduce delays. So it's not the run-if statement itself that causes the delay. To avoid this, you could us…
-
Hi Bo, Forms do not currently timeouts (but see #142). But if you just want to use a form to present stimuli, you could use a non-interactive form, by adding the following line of script: set only_render yes See also: * http://osdoc.cogsci.nl/fo…

In 0.26, you need to open the sequence tab and drag the items by the little drag handles on the left side of the item's icon. Does that clear things up?
-
Hi, You can move an item to the final position in a sequence by dropping it on the last item. In other words, the item will be inserted after the item that it's dropped upon. However, this behavior has been changed a few times during development, s…
-
One thing that comes to mind is that this DLL may not be compatible with the Python environment that is included with OpenSesame. For example, did you use a 64 bit python environment when testing PyGaze externally? Or are there any other notable dif…

What version of Windows are you using? I tested it on Windows 7, and I'm guessing Daniel did as well. (Right, @dschreij?)

Hi Jasmin, So I'm guessing you figured out how to replace the checkbox images from this discussion. And now you would like to change the font size and the size of the rectangle around the checkboxes as well. Is that right? Changing the font is rea…
