how to use E prime to display symbols and allowing participants to influence their shape?

[Josh]

I understand how to influence the width and height on my end, but how
can the participant influence the size when they do the experiment?
And what do you mean by the inline code, do you mean the script, not
fully sure how I would program that, I dont have that much experience
in programming.
