For our study, participants are required to sit through a 3 minute baseline waiting period before starting the task. Ideally, the participant should only see the instructions (i.e. "Please remain seated..."), which should remain on the screen for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, the next set of instructions should appear. Below is my attempt at creating syntax for that portion of the experiment. However, even with all the "false" codes for showing information the survey still shows a "Finish" button at the bottom of the screen that can be clicked (ending the 3 minute waiting period prematurely). Thoughts? Suggestions?

<surveypage Waiting>
/fontstyle = ("Times New Roman", 25pt)
/caption = "Please remain seated during this waiting period, instructions will appear shortly"
/showpagenumbers = false
/showbackbutton=false
/showquestionnumbers = false
/timeout = 180000
</surveypage>

Since the navigation button cannot technically be removed, the trick would be to display it off-screen. It won't be visible and easily clickable then.
<surveypage Waiting>
/fontstyle = ("Times New Roman", 25pt)
/caption = "Please remain seated during this waiting period, instructions will appear shortly"
/showpagenumbers = false
/showbackbutton=false
/showquestionnumbers = false
/timeout = 180000
/ nextbuttonposition = (-10%, -10%)
</surveypage>

Hope this helps.
