Reply To: Response time limit

[rosa303]

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for the help on the conditional feedback message. It works!
Regarding the timeout keypress problem, I tried disabling the response keys as you suggested (with a simpler version of my script, below) but I still get the same problem. If I wait and not press anything before the warning message and then press spacebar after the warning message, the next screen is just a white screen. It works fine (moves on to the next trial) if I press a response key before the warning message, within the 2000ms. I only use the spacebar key at the end of each trial.

    row =>

//fixation
    newText("dot", ".")

        .cssContainer({"font-size": "200%", "color": "white"})
    ,
    newText("fixation", "+")
        .print()
        .settings.center()
        .cssContainer({"font-size": "220%"})
    ,
    newTimer("wait", 1000)
