Syntax
/ displaymode = (width, height, refreshrate, bitsperpixel)Parameters
| width | An integer indicating the horizontal pixel resolution of the screen. A value of "0" indicates that the current setting should be used. |
| height | An integer indicating the vertical pixel resolution of the screen. A value of "0" indicates that the current setting should be used. |
| refreshrate | An integer indicating the refresh rate of the display. A value of "0" indicates that the current setting should be used. |

Remarks
Use this parameter to specify the pixel resolution, color resolution, and vertical refresh rate settings for this experiment. When the experiment is launched, Inquisit will attempt to change to the specified display settings. If the settings are not supported by the display system, a message is displayed giving the experimenter the option of aborting the experiment or running it anyway.
Examples
The following sets the horizontal and vertical screen resolution, but leaves the refresh rate and color resolution as they are:
<defaults>
/ displaymode = (800, 600, 0, 0)
</defaults>
