2009 Mac Pro/OSX El Capitan, 2015 Macbook Pro/OSX Catalina, 2010 MacPro/OSX El Capitan
Anaconda installed Psychopy (python v 3.6.6)
I don’t have this error on my 2017 Macbook Pro/OSX Mojave, either using standalone or anaconda psychopy
I’m trying to run a code called “RTBox_light_demo.py” that can be downloaded from this site. It is used to communicate with a response box that is connected with USB.
It gives me the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: CGEventMaskBit
The error seems to originate from “RT_light_demo.py” first stating:
from psychopy import visual, event, core
And then states:
import RTBox
In which the line from pynput import keyboard
consequently prompts the error.
If I remove visual
from the first line, from pynput import keyboard
does not give an error, but I obviously get other errors further down the script. If I import visual
after I import RTBox
, The script gets stuck at presenting the subject instruction screen (the first screen presented).
Any ideas how to solve this?
