Hello, so I have successfully uploaded the experiment script to the Inquisit servers and I can start the experiment using the provided weblink. However, when I run the script on a Macbook air, with a smaller 13 inch screen, the text for several of my experiments is completely distorted (pushed in a skinny vertical column). In addition, I have a visual analogue scale that asks participants to rate an image by clicking along a 32cm horizontal line. When I click on the line, the red "X" that should denote where I've clicked instead appears around 3 cm to the left of where I clicked. Any thoughts on these issues? Thank you.

The actual code and screenshots would be helpful. Without that not much I could say, I'm afraid.

In general, you'll want to
(1) express all /size's, /position's etc. in screen percentages and
(2) use the <defaults> element's /canvassize and/or /canvasaspectratio attributes to accomodate for different screen ratios etc.
