Too much Randomization

I am working in DirectRT and I am attempting to do RWG. While DirectRT does randomize the tasks, it does so in such a way that it repeats one line instead of randomizing the four and using each of those four only once (as we would like it to do).

For example:
---The Input---[code]block-trial-RBG-RWG-stim
1 1 0 1 triangle
1 2 0 1 ball
1 3 0 1 heart
1 4 0 1 star [/code]
---The Resulting Orders----[code]Test 1 Test 2 Test 3
-triangle -heart -star
-star -star -ball
-heart -ball -triangle
-triangle -star -triangle[/code]
Is there a way to randomize the trials such that the results would appear as:
[code]Test 1 Test 2 Test 3, etc.
-triangle -heart -star
-heart -star -ball
-heart -ball -triangle
-ball -triangle -heart[/code]
so that each trial is randomized but only appears once in a test?

Yes, there is. Remember that any items sharing the same RWG value go into the same pool for randomization. Checking your input file, see that you have a "1" assigned to [I]all[/I] of your trials across [I]all[/I] of your blocks? Try, instead, using the same value only [I]within[/I] blocks. So, e.g., try using an RWG value of "2" in your second block, "3" in your third block and so on. Let me know if that helps!

Ah-ha! Your suggestion worked. Thank you!
