Description of the problem: I have a Pychopy experiment in which participants need to click on a figure to make a Dialogue Box appear on screen. I defined a function that is called when a person clicks on a figure. It runs well locally in Python. However, when running it online in Pavlovia, the tra…

There seems that there have been some change sin the PsychoJS source code since I found the workaround. This made the fix I found to stop working. After some time trying to figure out what changed and how to solve the problem once more, I found out that the PsychoPy team had solved the problem with…

@miguel_santin , try following to create and present dialog boxes // Create dialog entries myFields = {"Field": "Enter text here", "Selection": [1,2]}; myDlgTitle = "The Dlg Title"; // Build dialog myDialog = psychoJS.gui.DlgFromDict({ dictionary: myFields, title: myDlgTitle }); // Present dia…

@dvbridges , Thank you for the help. I managed to use your suggestion to adapt the function I had in Python to also make a Dialogue Box appear correctly when a person clicks on a shape when testing online, however, I am stuck in two things: The box accepts text input but it does not close when cli…

After a whole day of trying to figure out what is wrong and how to solve it… I failed miserably. The only things I was able to notice by using the console.log() for debugging are two things: Once the Dialogue Box appears the code set for every frame keeps running repeatedly instead of pausing th…

Oh, I forgot to paste the link to the experiment in Pavlovia: https://pavlovia.org/miguel_santin/working-memory-task

@dvbridges After a second day of going deep in the source code and trying debug my code, I figued out that in fact the core problem is that the "OK and “Cancel” buttons do not work, only the “X” button.

@dvbridges NEW UPDATE Today I was able to understand better how the source code of the Dialog Box works. It seems that when a new Dialogue Box is created the previous one needs to be manually destroyed in order to make the buttons work again. There is a function in GUI source code which is in charg…

Fianaly, after a lot of work I managed to solve the issues. The full approach is to use a JQueries to access and customize a Dialogue Box. The code works well while a new version of Psychopy arrives with new features that make life easier for everyone. For anyone interested in the solution, the fun…

Hi @miguel_santin this is very helpful. I’m trying to do something similar in the hope that a dialogue box will potentially allow participants to complete tasks using an ipad or tablet (currently, the keyboard doesn’t ‘automatically’ appear on tablets when text responses are required, not sure if th…

@KtS Sure, no problem. Here is the link to the Pavlovia GitLab of the project. I hope it comes handy. You should start a new thread with the name “Dialogue Boxes on Tablets”. I am sure it will later be interesting and helpful for some other people as well :slight_smile: [image] Miguel Sant…
