Are you using a single object to record responses to different icons,
where the response always has the same name--Slide1.RESP, for example?
So that response exists and is carried over & recorded even for
icons that are not shown? <br>
<br>
If there's an inline object handling your response-dependent jumps
anyway, why not clear Slide1.RESP after the value is recorded in the
appropriate trial and before you jump to the next trial?<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I built an experiment in which the
participant responds to a picture. Depending on his/hers response, the
trial continues further (to different paths). For example, if the
response is correct, then the next picture is presented. If the
response is incorrect, the participant is presented with cues. If
the participant doesn't know how to respond, he is presented with a few
questions. After each question, the trial continues to different paths,
again, depending on response. All these response-dependent "jumps"
within a trial are performed using InLine and Label icons. All works
well. </font></div>

responses (RESP) are somehow recorded even when a specific icon was
skipped. For example, if the participant answers correctly to the first
question following a "don't know" response, the trial stops and the
next picture is presented. I would expect that no responses are logged
for all the following steps of this trial. Instead, the program
presents responses for all these skipped steps. The response recorded
is the response that actually occurred on the last trial when the
particular step wasn't missed. I have no idea how to deal with it. Be
happy to hear any suggestions.</span></font></div>
