Display Likert scale on second monitor

Hi,

I want to run an experiment on a second monitor (changing the primary monitor is not possible in this case) and I have used the /monitor=2 attribute for pictures and text. However, the monitor attribute doesn't seem to work for the Likert element. Is there an alternative way to display the Likert scale on the second monitor?

Thank you

You may want to build a custom likert scale using standard <trial> and <text>, <picture> etc. elements instead of relying on <likert> for this.

Alternatively, explore whether temporarily switching primary and secondary display is possible after all. There are free tools that allow you to script and automate this (e.g. https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/multi_monitor_tool.html or https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html if you're on Windows).
