OS (e.g. Win10): Win8 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?: I want to build a recognition memory task. where I present an image stimulus and after a delay, I present two image choices, and subjects are asked to respond by choosing an image that was presented before the delay.
What did you try to make it work?:
I built an experiment where I have the image then delay and again an image trial and then a response.
What specifically went wrong when you tried that?:
my images are not read and are not read and it suggests that and the variable in the excel file is not defined.
Include pasted full error message if possible. “That didn’t work” is not enough information.

I’m new to PsychoPy, please help me to get through!
This time I changed it to $cue.jpg but still, it didn’t work this is the error.

I don’t know why PsychoPy is unable to find the path for image files. my variables are set in the condition file and the image folder is next to the experiment file (all with in a folder).
I wonder weather image experiments don’t work on some Laptops?
Thanks for your suggestions but, the properties - name - images don’t allow me to use any characters ( + ) in the blank.
I have a folder named ‘cue’ that is placed next to the psychopy exp file, within this ‘cue’ folder I have image items.
I named the variable as ‘cue’ in the condition file which is also placed next to pychopy exp file and the same name ‘cue’ is used in the image blank as ‘$cue’.
So, if I have a folder then am I suppose to mention the path of the folder in the condition file and as well as the experiment builder?
Initially to avoid this name error I had pulled all the images from the folder and place them next to exp file but didn’t work.

And all the images in the ‘cue’ folder have unique names (e.g. 1.jpg, 2.jpg,…) the same names are in each row of the excel condition file.
I don’t know why it is not able to pick up the images.
If you are loading multiple images from a list of images defined in an excel sheet, you need to change the option that is located on the right side of your variable name “cur” in the image routine properties
you change it from constant to set at every repeat.
