Hi,

I have recently starting getting an error when I get to a question that is a word document item type on a new computer I've been using. A dialogue box pops up that says:
Title: Medialab...

Hi,

Is there a repository for questionnaires any where? It would be great if people could share questionnaires, since there are many common paper and pencil versions that are frequently used. ...

Hi,

This issue is still causing problems for me. Is there a solution?

Thanks,

Jon

Yeah, I have considered doing this with a batch file. I was just hoping the DRT behavior was the same as ML.

Thanks

Yes, it switches. However for a number of reasons I need the monitor the experimenter sees to be the primary and the participant's monitor to be secondary. How can I control where the stimuli...

I have a dual monitor system with extended display setup (not cloned). The stimuli from DRT are always displaying on the primary windows monitor, regardless of the fact that I have the DRT window...

Hi,

I'd like to setup a shortcut to launch a DirectRT experiment using the command line, but I need it to ask for the Subject number. In MediaLab, you can specify certain values (such as the...

The help file says that there is a function to condense data files (see excerpt below) but i can't find it. Where is it located?

Thanks. I've also just noticed that the connection from my button box is a male 9-pin. The adapters that come up as USB to serial are all male 9 pin as well. Would a gender converter work, or does...

Hi,

I have an older button box (custom made) with a serial connection. Can anyone give me any idea whether it might work with DirectRT using a serial to USB adapter? If so, any particular type I...

I don't like to clutter my C:\ path, so I have programs organized into folders. For instance, DirectRT is in C:\Apps\DirectRT

The tutorial program that came with 2012 has links that should open...

FYI, I found this thread after being confused by the tutorial documentation that came with DRT 2012, which still refers to RWG/RBG.

Hi,

Could still really use help with this.

Thanks!

I have an essay item that has a long question wording that covers a good portion of the page, such that the essay box overlaps all but the first several lines of the question.

How can I allow the...

Cancel that. The problem is that ML is incorrectly using the "d" variable to skip the html page after the specified time, rather than passing it to the <ml.d> placeholder in the html file.

I have a custom item html form that I need to automatically submit after a given duration. I've successfully written a javascript that submits the form based on the duration time specified in the...

How can I insert the current system time in a questionnaire item?

I.E., I want to ask participants how long its been since something happened. If they don't know what time it is, they may not be...

Is there a way that I can set both a duration limit, and a duration requirement, for the same item?

the "d" parameter can be used with positive numbers to allow no more than X seconds for a...

I want to have all the response boxes on a single page, rather than refreshing to a new entry box after each response is given. How can I do this?

Thanks.

I need to have an image in a scale response item. For some reason, the parameters for setting the location of both seem to be the same (t - top, l - left), and when I set them ML applies them to the...

When I make changes to a questionnaire, and click save, the behavior of the experiment editor is confusing.

First, it asks whether i want to replace the existing file.

Next, it brings up the...

I have a followup question that is conditional on a previous scale response item. This pair are the last 2 in a questionnaire. If they answer A on the first question, they should not skip and...

I'm launching an experiment using a shortcut. When it gets to the last question, it simply quits, almost as if it had an error and just crashed.

Normally when not using a shortcut, a nice...

My university uses an IP license. I have been having problems with the original version fo MediaLab we were provided, and have uninstalled and tried to install the newer 2008.1.33e version using the...

When I include a period in my questionnaire file names, such as "Questionnaire (v1.0).que" medialab cannot run them as experiments. It pops up a dialog box saying that the file could not be found,...

I have a scale item with 10 response items. Each has a somewhat long sentence for its description. When I use the sentence for each item as that item's text label, the text is cutoff after the...

Yes, all permissions are given to both the user and SYSTEM. I have this installed in a subdir of the root, has that ever been a problem?

Hi,

My department has a license for v2004, however when I started using ML I thought it was v2006, and I was accidentally given license codes for v2006 for several computers, which is what I...

That did it. Can you pass this bug along to the developers?

Thanks,

Jon

Hi,

I'm using an html form in a questionnaire with version 2004. Because I need to give it <ml.wording> and collect responses, I'm using the "Custom" item type (as opposed to the "HTML" item...

Hi,

On one of my computers on which I recently installed ML, every questionnaire/experiment I try to run opens the typical purple background, but nothing else is displayed - ie the questionnaire...

This occurs on several computers with different paths, but here is an example:

C:\Zadra\MediaLab Files\Exercise 2.0.que

It is occurring in both cases for the same file. When the que file is in a multi-que exp file, the experiment runs normally until it reaches that que file. Then the same error message is given.

I have an issue with MediaLab 2004.3.24

Some of my questionnaire files will not load, either when they
are part of a multi-questionnaire experiment file or when I select "load

When I try to run an experiment or a single questionnaire, some of the questionnaires produce an error:

"The requested experiment does not appear to exist any longer in the given location. Use...

Ah. I was testing it using Firefox. Can anyone help out with a similarly functioning script that will work in IE?

Thanks,

Hi,

If I create a questionnaire/experiment with v2008, will there be any issues for a colleague with v2004 to run it?

Thanks,

Is MediaLab 2004 able to display *.htm files if Office 2007 / IE 7 is installed (as opposed to Office 2003 / IE 6, which does work)?
