+xIs there a manual or other documentation somewhere that I can access for Inquisit 6?
In particular as somebody who previously used Inquisit 5 where can I find out what is new?
In the new features overview I see mention of goodies like while loops but in the Inquisit help I dont see this documented.
Also I wish to try to have identical physical sizes on different screens when deploying experiments on the web.
I see from searching the forum that I can specify sizes in mm.
However, in the help this possibility does not seem to be documented.
Regarding specifying stimulus size in terms of physical size can you tell me how Inquisit does this, where does it retrieve the ppi or other information from for a particular screen?
Many thanks
Kevin

https://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/> In the new features overview I see mention of goodies like while loops but in the Inquisit help I dont see this documented.
while() and temporary vars are supported. I.e.
<values>
/ letterstring = ""
</values>
<list letters>
/ items = ("A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I", "J", "K", "L", "M", "N", "O", "P", "Q", "R", "S", "T", "U", "V", "W", "X", "Y", "Z")
/ selectionrate = always
/ replace = true
/ maxrunsize = 1
</list>
<trial mytrial>
/ ontrialbegin = [
// generate a string of 6 random letters
values.letterstring = "";
var i = 0;
while (i < 6) {
values.letterstring = concat(values.letterstring, list.letters.nextvalue);
i += 1;
};
]
/ stimulusframes = [1=mytext]
/ validresponse = (57)
</trial>
<text mytext>
/ items = ("<%values.letterstring%>")
</text>
<block myblock>
/ trials = [1-4 = mytrial]
</block>

From suitable operating system APIs. See Tools -> System Information in Inquisit Lab.
