Hi All,

consider the following script snippet

<counter COUNTER>
/ items = (1,2,3)
/ select = noreplace
/ selectionrate = always
</counter>

<item ITEM>
/ 1 = "One"
/ 2 = "Two"
/ 3 = "Three"
</item>

<text TEXT>
/ items = ITEM
/ select = COUNTER
</text>

<trial TRIAL>
/ stimulustimes = [1 = TEXT; 1001 = TEXT; 2001 = TEXT]
/ response = (anyresponse)
</trial>


If I understand the "/ selectionrate" property of the <counter> element correctly, it should redraw anytime the TEXT element is invoked. Thus, the trial should present the texts "ONE", "TWO", and "THREE" in random order. Problem is, it doesn't. Inquisit selects one of the three texts and displays it throughout the trial.

I need to display 40+ slightly different pictures in a trial, so I'd rather go with

/ stimulustimes = [1 = TXT,TXT,TXT,TXT,...)


instead of

/ stimulustimes = [1 = TXT1,TXT2,TXT3,TXT4,...)


since in the latter case I would have to define 40+ TEXT elements.

Is that possible?

Kind regards, Malte
