Re: Answer dialog box, Quicktime video switching

I can only comment on your first inquiry. The dialogs you are referring to are modal, and not really accessible to modification. I think you will have to make your own "dialog" to do the things you want, likely as a stack. This is easy, fortunately, and then you have complete control over buttons a...

Answer dialog box, Quicktime video switching

Hi, Two quick questions that I need help with. (1) Is there a way to pop up a dialog box (such as the one that appears with 'answer') and have the button(s) greyed out, and then hide/remove the box after, say, 2 seconds? If not with the 'answer' function, is there a way to mimic this without resorti...

New question: The reason I implemented answer boxes in the first place was to halt the repeat loop they run in and wait for an answer. However I would far prefer buttons embedded in the card to appear, the problem is that when I tried this method it showed the group (which contains the question fie...

1. I would insert a little frontscript before "answer"- or "ask"-ing th user and remove it afterwards. Worked perfectly. Handy workaround trick to remember for later. 2. On my mac the line: answer "Press a button to continue:" with "Quit" OR "Proceed to next pair" Gave me "Quit" on the left side of...

New question: making a repeat loop wait on button press

Edit: I have a new question, instead of creating a whole new thread I've posted it at the bottom. ----------------------------- Hi, I've done much searching on this forum and in the Rev dictionary to no avail. I'd be very glad if someone could point me in the right direction for solving two little p...

A few questions, I think I misunderstand your idea.

- where would I put the list?
- how would I format the list? like this?:
Images/1.png,Images/2.png,Images/3.png
- wouldn't this mean I need to list all possible combinations of prime-left-right images? 120x120x120 = a lot of lines...

Yep, it's for a psychology experiment. The only coding I've done in the past is HTML/CSS (does that even count?) and I was first introduced to Revolution on Monday so this is a bit of a learning experience. Also, here's the current script I've written on the main card, which might give more of an id...

I'm not sure what you mean, how does that script make it random? It has to be different every time the program is run, I can't manually randomise it once and keep using those choices. Also this may be complicated by the fact that I am recording things. After each pair is shown, the user will choose ...

Images randomised according to rules?

Hi, I've done some searching on the forum and while I couldn't find answers to my questions it is apparent that the users here are very helpful, so I thought I'd ask questions myself. The basic application of a program I am trying to write has two stages which are repeated numerous times. The second...
