When I run this inquisit task, it will save data using the following columns:
latency inwindow stimulusnumber1 stimulusitem1 stimulusvpos1 stimulushpos1 stimulusonset1 stimulusnumber2 stimulusitem2
stimulusvpos2 stimulushpos2 stimulusonset2 stimulusnumber3 stimulusitem3 stimulusvpos3 stimulushpos3 stimulusonset3
stimulusnumber4 stimulusitem4 stimulusvpos4 stimulushpos4 stimulusonset4
I need to save some values variable, for example, values.SSD for each trial. I can get it to work by
<data>/ columns = [date, time, subject, build, blocknum, trialnum, blockcode, trialcode, pretrialpause, posttrialpause, windowcenter, trialduration, trialtimeout, blocktimeout, response, correct, latency, values.SSD, inwindow, stimulusnumber, stimulusitem, stimulusvpos, stimulushpos, stimulusonset]</data>
However, I can't get "stimulusnumber, stimulusitem, stimulusvpos, stimulushpos, stimulusonset" to populate 4 sets of these variables (i.e., stimulusnumber1 stimulusitem1 stimulusvpos1 stimulushpos1 stimulusonset1 stimulusnumber2 stimulusitem2 stimulusvpos2 stimulushpos2 stimulusonset2 stimulusnumber3 stimulusitem3 stimulusvpos3 stimulushpos3 stimulusonset3
stimulusnumber4 stimulusitem4 stimulusvpos4 stimulushpos4 stimulusonset4).
If I list these 4 sets of variables in <data> tag, it throws an error.
So, my question is (a) whether there is any way to add "values.SSD" as an additional column in the data file without customizing the whole things, and (b) whether there is any way to let Inquisit to populate stimulusnumer1 to stimulusnumber4 (also for other similar variables).
I would greatly appreciate any helpful comment.
Thanks!

No.

Yes. The correct definition should look like this:
<data>
/ columns = [date, time, subject, build, blocknum, trialnum, blockcode, trialcode, pretrialpause, posttrialpause, windowcenter, trialduration, trialtimeout, blocktimeout, response, correct, latency, values.SSD, inwindow, stimulusnumber, stimulusitem, stimulusvpos, stimulushpos, stimulusonset, stimulusnumber, stimulusitem, stimulusvpos, stimulushpos, stimulusonset, stimulusnumber, stimulusitem, stimulusvpos, stimulushpos, stimulusonset, stimulusnumber, stimulusitem, stimulusvpos, stimulushpos, stimulusonset]
</data>

Thank you, Dave!
That works perfect.
