Hello!

We are designing a task where a user selects a location (1–4), receives new information, and then continues choosing until they reach a final outcome. Each location corresponds to a single trial, and based on their choice, they branch to a different trial.

I would like to randomize the order of the four location options across trials (e.g., sometimes displayed as locations 1 3 5 7, other times as 3 5 7 1, etc.). However, it seems that each position requires manually defining text elements with specific x and y coordinates. Instead of hardcoding every possible combination (a text element describing location 1 at position 1, location 1 at position 2, location 1 at position 3, etc), is there a way to dynamically assign location labels to predefined positions within a trial? There are 20 possible locations and 4 possible positions on the screen, and within a trial, I would like to ideally only set the order of locations.

Any guidance for further efficiency is greatly appreciated! Thank you!
