Re: how to add a time-out during trials

Thanks for your patience and persistence Simon! The fld contains information on 80 images, i.e. its jpg 'name' and other coded info which gets recorded. For me in the past (and by past I mean the whole 2 weeks I've been working with this program..) image item 1 would refer to the first piece of info...

Re: how to add a time-out during trials

HI Simon thanks for the response. It won't seem to allow me to post my stack on here. There is definitely “image item 1 of line trial of fld “doglist””, it even displays it earlier in the script under the opencard handler. I’m guessing that it’s continuing on from here (opencard) and reading all the...

Handler not recognising images

I have created a handler called “timeout” – which I send to my card after 6 seconds (it is a reaction time experiment and I want to stop participants from responding and tell them they are too slow if they take longer than 6 seconds which is what I am aiming to do with this handler) Basically the ex...

Re: how to add a time-out during trials

Thanks for your suggestions guys Simon - it is a psychology team :) I realised when I tried searching for help that I may have problems with the word “trial” but it's been engrained into me! - I tried using the "wait 10 seconds with messages" however it still won't allow a key response to be made in...

how to add a time-out during trials

Hi All I am very new to LiveCode and have hit a wall. I've been asked to alter a program by adding a time-out conditon whereby if a response is not made within 10 seconds the current trial is aborted and the new one begins. In this case a trial is a picture popping up and particpants must then hit e...
