Hi
I'm building a GoNogo Association task which requires 8 blocks to run. Each block is comprised of 4 tasks and an instruction messages before the task are randomly run.
Is there any way to display 2 phrases in the background as a reminder while all 4 tasks run?
I can't put the display of the words within the tasks as the tasks are reused in a number of blocks.
Example
Below the NoGoNegW task is reused for 4 trials involving a negative word condition and the Shape3 and NoGoSh3 task is used in combination with positive and negative words.
For the example below I would ideally like the words "3+ Shapes" and "negative" to show at the top of the screen when the block below runs despite also giving the instruction befor it starts (NS31)
block 3SNeg message NS3I enter tasklist Shape3 16 all_before_repeat neg 16 all_before_repeat NoGoSh3 12 all_before_repeat NoGoNegW 12 all_before_repeat end
I know I could probably do it by not reusing the tasks as I already have 8 blocks of difference target and valance combinations, as also need to counterbalance them with a lot of blockorders I'd like to avoid changing the code.
Thanks Kerstin

A couple of points:
1) I don't think you can let start any names start with a number, thus "3SNeg" is better called something like "myblock_3SNeg"
2) The only way to show a text in a task is by putting the instruction to show something in the task. Just put it as the first instruction of the tasks.
3) Instead of a text, you could also put it in an image, which often gives you a bit more flexibility.
