Ah I see. So there is no way to present the stimulus frames "behind" the trial its self? And that's why the custom trial works while the likert doesn't, because you can layer the response  buttons on top of the html?

No, there is no such thing as a "trial itself" layer.

No, it's plainly a bug in how Inquisit 4 handles the <html> element in certain situations. In essence, the mouse is captured by the HTML window. Inquisit 5 doesn't have that problem.

Does that clarify?

Hi all, 
I found in the Inquisit library the attached version of Davidson et al.'s hearts and flowers task. Unfortunately, it is written for Inquisit 5 and my department has a licence for Inquisit 4, on which it doesn't work. Can someone help me in converting the code for Inquisit 4?
