Setting time limit for open-ended responses (case 12651)

[jason_reed]

Could you please upload an example input file so that I can see one or two of these trials in which you want to interrupt the text response portion?

Absolutely. Attached is the file I've been working with.

Unfortunately, DirectRT doesn't have a feature that allows for the timed interruption of open ended responses before participants press the Enter key. This is because DirectRT passes control to Windows and it cannot intervene until the text box is closed and control returns to DirectRT.

OK, that makes sense. Thanks so much for your help!
