Recent discussions have brought to light a number of features that are supported by MWorks but not supported (or incompletely supported) by MWEditor. I’m going to start a list of such features in this discussion. Anyone who knows of or discovers additional missing features should feel free to add them in a comment.
Missing Features
-
List replicator:
<list_replicator tag="List Replicator_1" full_name="fullname_1" values="0,1" variable="x"> <list_replicator tag="List Replicator_2" full_name="fullname_1" values="2,0" variable="y"> <list_replicator tag="List Replicator_3" full_name="fullname_1" values="3,7,1,0" variable="z"> <stimulus tag="Distractor${x}${y}${z}" full_name="Distractor${x}${y}${z}" type="image_file" path="./Distractor${x}${y}${z}.png" x_size="3" y_size="3" x_position="0" y_position="0" rotation="0.0" contrast="0.0" affine_transform="0"/> </list_replicator> </list_replicator> </list_replicator> -
Unload stimulus action:
<action tag="Unload Stimulus" type="unload_stimulus" stimulus="my_image"></action> -
Linear eye calibrator:
<calibrator type="linear_eye_calibrator" eyeh_raw="" eyev_raw="" eyeh_calibrated="" eyev_calibrated=""></calibrator>
Incomplete Features
-
Image stimulus editor doesn’t support
deferred="explicit" -
Image file path can’t be edited manually, which prevents you from using a replicator variable in the image name
-
Selection variables don’t have a custom editor panel, so users must know the syntax for “values” and the options for “selection” and “sampling_method”
