Hi Matt,<br>
<br>
I'm an E-Prime novice and I'm trying to program scrolling text in E-Prime. I know this a really old post, but if you still have it, is there any way you could send me the example you mentioned? Google groups has since deleted the file feature where you originally posted it. It would be a tremendous help and I'd really appreciate it.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Nick<br>

Hello,<br>
<br>
It is possible to implement "scrolling" text in E-Prime. However, this<br>
must be done manually using InLine script. I have attached a very<br>
basic example of how this could be done in the Files section of this<br>
group (i.e., ScrollingText.es). Essentially, a SlideText sub-object is<br>
created and its proportions are configured to be larger than the<br>
screen (thus creating the need to scroll the text). Another SlideText<br>
sub-object is used to present instructions to the subject.<br>
<br>
The Slide object's Duration is set to 0, while its Time Limit is set<br>
to "infinite" and its End Action is set to "none". The only allowable<br>
responses are the down arrow, up arrow, and Enter keys. The Enter key<br>
is used as the termination response. The Max Count (i.e., maximum<br>
allowed responses) is set extremely high so that the subject can<br>
scroll freely.<br>
<br>
This configuration results in the Stimulus appearing on screen while<br>
the InLine script is running in the background. This script does<br>
nothing except monitor incoming responses and moving the SlideText sub-<br>
object presenting the target text. This results in a "scrolling"<br>
effect as the subject presses the down and up arrow keys. All that is<br>
occurring is that the script gains access to the SlideText sub-object<br>
and then moves the Y position of the SlideText up or down as<br>
necessary. A "ceiling" and "floor" for the Y position is implemented<br>
so that the text is never off-screen.<br>
<br>
The attributes in the TrialList are used to implement the "celing" and<br>
"floor" as well as to define the size and starting position of the<br>
text. This allows text of varying length to be presented.<br>
<br>
Please let me know if you have any questions about this sample.<br>
