Slider response Output

Hi all,
I recently converted an Inquisit 5 script to an Inquisit 4 script.
The problem: The sliders responses are not shown in the output. The latency is shown there, but not the response.
The sliders look like this:

<slider o1>
/ caption = "Question o1 Text"
/ position = (20%, 50%)
/ labels = ("0";"50";" 100")
/ range = (0, 100)
/ increment = 1
/ slidersize = (60%, 5%)
/ required = true
/ showticks = true
/ orientation = horizontal
</slider>

I hope you can help me out with this

I don't know what other changes you made, but the problem isn't the <slider> element you posted. Running

<slider o1>
/ caption = "Question o1 Text"
/ position = (20%, 50%)
/ labels = ("0";"50";" 100")
/ range = (0, 100)
/ increment = 1
/ slidersize = (60%, 5%)
/ required = true
/ showticks = true
/ orientation = horizontal
</slider>

<surveypage mypage>
/ questions = [1=o1]
</surveypage>

<survey mysurvey>
/ pages = [1=mypage]
</survey>

or

<slider o1>
/ caption = "Question o1 Text"
/ position = (20%, 50%)
/ labels = ("0";"50";" 100")
/ range = (0, 100)
/ increment = 1
/ slidersize = (60%, 5%)
/ required = true
/ showticks = true
/ orientation = horizontal
</slider>

<surveypage mypage>
/ questions = [1=o1]
</surveypage>

<block myblock>
/ trials = [1=mypage]
</block>

under Inquisit 4 will record the slider response just fine (try it for yourself and/or see the two attached data files generated with Inquisit 4). You must have overlooked something else when you modified the respective Inquisit 5 script.

Hi and thanks again :)

Unfortunately neither my code nor the codes posted by you are working :( I know they should, but somehow they don´t.
Everything else does work by the way, just the sliders not.
So I threw out everything else out and tested just the sliders, but still not working...
<slider o1>
/ caption = "


Question Text o1"
/ position = (20%, 50%)
/ labels = ("0";"50";" 100")
/ range = (0, 100)
/ increment = 1
/ slidersize = (60%, 5%)
/ required = true
/ showticks = true
/ orientation = horizontal
</slider>

<surveypage V1>
/ fontstyle = ("Verdana", 16)
/ questions = [1=o1]
/ showquestionnumbers = false
/ showpagenumbers = false
</surveypage>
<survey testung2>
/ showpagenumbers = false
/ pages = [1=V1]
/itemspacing = 2%
</survey>

<expt 1>
/ preinstructions = (Introduction)
/ blocks = [1=testung2]
/ postinstructions = (Danke)
</expt>

<instruct Introduction>
/ txcolor = black
/ nextlabel = "Weiter"
/ inputdevice = mouse
/ fontstyle = ("Verdana")
</instruct>

Were these data generated using the monkey? If so, that's expected / due to limitations in the monkey. See https://www.millisecond.com/forums/FindPost20896.aspx

If you complete the script *manually* (as a participant would), there will be no problem.

Ah I see thank you so much! :)
