Hello,

I am writing about an issue I am stuck on pertaining to the orientation of images in the AAT script. I have not changed any of the default settings with regard to resizing images according to a certain ratio, etc. These are the images I have listed below, sorted into 8 categories, and they correspond with the same trial number below it. The target formats written in the script all match what we would like to have. However, when running the script, the photos that we have taken ourselves in portrait mode get rotated and are shown as landscape photos. Interestingly, the photos we have gotten from the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) in portrait mode stay in portrait mode, without rotating. I can’t figure out what to change in the script to have it keep images in their original orientation.

Thank you for any help!

maincategory 1 (threat, untrained) landscape (1): indices 1-8

maincategory 2 (threat, untrained) portrait (2): indices 9-16

Inquisit has no capability to rotate images, so there must be something wrong with your source images themselves. Make sure they are oriented properly using the image editor of your choice.
