Re. #1: Turning the entire page white is the way to go. Unfortunately, due to technical limitations, not all elements' colors / background colors can be adjusted.

Re. #2: You can change the navigation buttons' positions via the <surveypage>'s /nextbuttonposition and /backbuttonposition attributes.

Hi Dave and others

I have a similar question to this. I used a sample script to construct my survey and I am trying to change the last button on the survey to say 'next' instead of 'finish' (see screenshot) as the participants need to continue on to an IAT experiment afterwards.

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Belinda.

To change the buttons' labels, use the <survey>'s or <surveypage>'s /backlabel, /nextlabel and /finishlabel attributes. The one relevant to your specific question is /finishlabel.

Hi Dave

Thanks for the speedy response. Unfortunately I am still unable to change the text on this key. I did a search for the word 'finish' and it does not appear in my script anywhere! I tried adding the /nextlabel to the offending survey page, but the button still displays as 'finish'. See below for a screen shot of the syntax for the offending survey page and the results. Any other ideas?

Thanks
Belinda

You need to add the attribute to the <surveypage> element. If no /finishlabel attribute is specified, Inquisit will use the default text.

I.e.,

<surveypage Pleasure2>
...
/ finishlabel = "Next >>"
</surveypage>

/nextlabel won't do anything here, because /nextlabel only applies if another page follows. Consider the following example to see the difference:

<survey mysurvey>
/ pages = [1=a; 2=b]
/ backlabel = "BACKLABEL ATTRIBUTE"
/ nextlabel = "NEXTLABEL ATTRIBUTE"
/ finishlabel = "FINISHLABEL ATTRIBUTE"
</survey>

<surveypage a>
/ caption = "1st page"
</surveypage>

<surveypage b>
/ caption = "2nd page"
</surveypage>

Ah huh! Wonderful. Thanks Dave. Sorted.
