Hi,
When I run my experiment via the web the radiobutton options are not shown on one line each, but some of the options are wrapped so that they occupy two lines. This results in disappearance of the top and bottom half of the text. Is there a way to prevent wrapping? When I run the script locally, the problem does not occur. Below is an example from the script:
<survey DV5>
/pages = [1=interpretation5; 2=anxietyscale1]
/ showpagenumbers = false
/ fontstyle = ("Arial", 2.00%, false, false, false, false, 5, 1)
</survey>
<surveypage interpretation5>
/questions = [1=interpretation5]
/showquestionnumbers = false
</surveypage>
<radiobuttons interpretation5>
/caption = "Why are they looking at you?"
/ options = ("Because they do not think I will fit in", "Because they appreciate my efforts to get along with everyone", "Because I walked into the pantry")
/ required = true
/ order = random
/position = (30%,40%)
</radiobuttons>
The result looks like this:
Thanks,
Diane

The screenshot suggests that the wrapping occurs because there's not enough horizontal space to display the options without wrapping. In that case, selecting a /position further to the left should help.
It may also be that the varying length of the options breaks Inquisit's assumptions about the required space for each option because /order is set to random. In the latter case, you can artificially make each option approximately equal in length using tabs (cf. https://www.millisecond.com/forums/FindPost18159.aspx for something similar), or go for a fixed order of options.
Hope this helps.
