Hi,

for my research I need to have my participants view over 200 pictures and rate them on certain attributes.
Now adding all of these stimuli to my item list manually is going to take a very long time, especially because the image names are all complicated and long.

I've been trying to find a way to have inquisit simply detect the images in my image folder and select every one of them as an item to be used - However I've been unable to find a way to do this.

Is there a way to do this? If yes, how do I do this?


Thanks,
Mark

No, there is not. For a given script to work properly and reliably, it must "know" which external files it should rely on -- and that requires specifying the files somewhere in your script. Otherwise you'd be opening yourself up to all sorts of catastrophic failures at runtime.
