Is there a way to allow participants to draw a shape (e.g., circle, square) within a defined space on the screen, perhaps by clicking the mouse and dragging it to a specific location? I am thinking of a task much like how one creates shapes in programs such as Microsoft Office. Thanks!

For an example of its use, see the "Trail Making Test" script available in the Task Library. A different approach that also applies to Inquisit 3, can be found at http://www.millisecond.com/forums/FindPost4421.aspx (scripts in the ZIP archive attached to that post).
