    Hi,

    I am trying to implement an experiment where some texts elements are superimposed on some parts of the pictures. However, I want to make sure that they are placed at exactly the place I want them to be, and not some other places due to the resolution change between participants. Is there a way to achieve that? or maybe check people resolutions and code the trials according to their resolutions?

    Here’s a working example of my design: https://farm.pcibex.net/r/TtiCOZ/ (it includes a click sound as well)

    I also have other questions that are not directly related.
    – My design is such that there are some words first, and then a picture comes, but words have to be on top still. I used z-index : -9999 for the picture. It worked for PennController2.0, but does not work with 2.1 version. Why?
    – I also have a “click.wav” file which I want it to be played when the picture comes about. It again works in 2.0, but not in 2.1.

    Best,
    Utku

    Hi,

    Canvas elements allow for arbitrary positioning of elements. For example, this would print the word “hello” at the bottom-right corner of the image:

    newCanvas("myCanvas", 200, 300)
      .add("center at 50%", "middle at 50%", newImage("myImage.png"))
      .add("right at 100%", "bottom at 100%", newText("hello"))
      .print()
    

    Anyone still experiencing issues with PennController 2.1 is invited to downgrade to 2.0 following these instructions
