OS (e.g. Win10): Win10 PsychoPy version (e.g. 1.84.x): v2020.2.10 Standard Standalone? (y/n) If not then what?: yes **What are you trying to achieve?: Hi, this seems like a rather simple question but I couldn’t really figure out how to do that: I am trying to change the color of a polygon for…

Hello Open your project on gitlab, settings, permissions, public Best wishes Jens

I think you where on the right path with a timer. You could modify your code like this: #in the begin routine tab timer = core.Clock() polygon_3.fillColor = 'white' #the color you want the polygon to normaly have #in the each frame tab if mouse.isPressedIn(polygon_3): timer.reset() #turn the ti…

Hi tandy, that makes so much sense. Thank you so much, it works perfectly. I guess I was a little confused with the timer function. Thanks, Kathrin

Hi tandy, after implementing that I ran into a new problem. I was trying to run this experiment on pavlovia but got an error message rearding to the core.Clock() function. After looking in the crib sheet I figuered I would have to implement the JS code. I tried this: timer = new util.Clock(); for …

Hello Kathrin define the JavaScript timer in its own JS code-element. Leave the code-element that autotranslates Python to JavaScript untouched. Alternatively, you could set the code-element from autotranslate to both and edit the JavaScript part. Best wishes Jens

Hi, Thanks a lot! I already did that and it seems to be working in pavlovia. But now I can’t start it locally. Is it supposed to be like this? I mean it’s not a deal breaker, I could just test it online but maybe I’m doing something work. Anyway, I’m sorry for all the questions, but I realized tha…

Hello Kathrin well, it should work offline and online if you have set autotranslate to both or if you define two code-elements, one Python only, the other JavaScript only. For the other problem, do you have a toy-experiment which exemplifies the problem? Best wishes Jens

So in the code component you have two windows, one for phyton (local) and one for javascript (online). For the experiment to work both online and offline you should have a working code in both windows. However if you are going to test your experiment online I think you can focus only on that. For t…

Hi, @tandy : thanks for the hint. It’s really a known issue. My work around is changing the colors for now and it seems to be working. The python -> JS crib sheet was really helpful. @JensBoelte : It works since I used “both” and twisted the JS code according to the crib sheet. But I was wondering h…
