stimuli position

[liwenna]

Hi Linda,

That sounds frustrating to say the least :p

Could it be that the position of the image-objects are defined in
pixels and not in % (i.e. a simple numeric value like 300 in the x/y
boxes, rather than 25% or something the like?). If that is the case
then e-prime defines the location of the objects as a set number of
pixels from the topleft corner of the display. Telling e-prime that
the display has grown (or shrunken) will not make it change the number
of pixels at which it locates the object and thus the object will have
moved to a relatively different position on the display.

Why is it not possible to make adjustments to the experiment? Because
you're in the middle of running it? If that's the case then I'd would
certainly not switch displays and continue at the old one, unless it's
broken, in that case try to find one that is as similar as possible :s

best,

AW
