Description of the problem: I have 16 trials where participants see two options. The images are randomized and stored in my conditions file. The positions for the two images are also stored in this file. The other three images (an arrow and the number 1 and 2) are set in the builder. These images show up on the screen, but not the images that are stored in the excel file. I don’t get an error and when I go through the experiment (by pressing 1 or 2), it will go all the way to the end of the experiment and the data looks as it should (attached). Any recommendations would be appreciated!
I think there was a recent issue where python code used in components (that is, after a $ sign) were not being exported to JavaScript
It’s been closed now - so maybe try updating psychopy and export the code to HTML again? If that doesn’t work, I’m happy to take a closer look if you share the project with me on pavlovia!
Thanks for all the help! I really appreciate it. I downloaded the newer version of psychopy. Unfortunately, I am getting a new error (perhaps an issue with the updated version of psychopy).
I had that error at 1am this morning - it turns out that a variable I was declaring in my code component had been set earlier in the script and I was essentially emptying it
OK - so it’s not a bug - so you can probably close the GitHub issue.
I’m assuming that at the moment you have some code next to a $ in one of your components (text, image, etc) which is meant to assign a value to a variable. This is what is breaking the experiment. Instead, if you create a new code component and set the value of the variable in that, and then refer to that variable in the component whose attribute you need to set, that should fix it.
//JS
//Begin Experiment
var mySize = [starting_x, starting_y]; // the initial position
//Every Frame
mySize = myTransformation(mySize); // do what you need to do with the parameter
// Image Stimulus
size: $mySize
So, I just opened psychopy and the error popped up again (I hadn’t touched or ran anything yet). It may be possible that the error has nothing to do with what I had previously done. When I tried to do the above fix, the error popped up another few times.
wx._core.wxAssertionError: C++ assertion “(argtype & (wxFormatStringSpecifier::value)) == argtype” failed at C:\PROJECTS\bb2\dist-win64-py36\build\ext\wxWidgets\include\wx/strvararg.h(449) in wxArgNormalizer::wxArgNormalizer(): format specifier doesn’t match argument type
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
