Hello all,
For my experiment it is important that stimuli are of the same exact size, irrespective of the screen they are being presented on. I am hesitant to set the canvas size to a particular value because it requires me to set a minimum screen size for eligible participants. Instead, I was hoping to set the size of my stimuli, as well as the distance between them. My attempt looks as follows:
<list t_x>
/ items = (display.getmmx(display.width/2, 1) - 10mm, display.getmmx(display.width/2, 1), display.getmmx(display.width/2, 1) + 10mm)
display.getmmx(pixels, monitor)
display.getmmx(pixels, monitor)
/ poolsize = 60
</list>
<text t>
/ items = targets
/ select = values.t
/ hposition = values.t_x
/ txcolor = values.t_color
/ erase = false
</text>
The above code is not doing as I intended (one letter position in the centre, one 10mm to the left, one 10mm to the right). How can I achieve this?
All the best,
Lukas
