My apologies if this is a repeat of information on the forum, but I'm new to Inquisit and am having trouble finding the answer...

I don't want to set the window size or refresh rates of the participants' monitors, but I do want to record the size of the monitor and the refresh rate that a participant is using.  Is there any way to record this information without necessarily setting it (just record what it is)?

Thanks for your help!!

Those properties are exposed via the built-in <display> element. You can log them to the data file just like any other property.

Other machine properties are exposed via the <computer> element:
