Stimulus presentation using CopyWindow

1
Hi,

I've created a script to present B&W photographs. First I use imread
to get the picture (TIFF), then I used centerrrect and/or offsetrect
to place it where I want it on the screen. For each picture I open
an offscreen window and use PutImage to put the picture into the
offscreen window. All of this happens in the initialization phase so
at presentation I just have to copy the windows to my current
display. All of my pictures are B&W and all are 280w X 339h (pixel
size). For some reason, though, they're coming up square at
presentation! Somewhere along the line they're being cropped. I do
define a rectangle for each picture:
pic_rect = [0,0,size(pic)];

As far as I can tell that rectangle is the correct size for the
picture. Do you have any ideas for how to display the full picture?

Thanks,
Irit Rappley

Without seeing your program, it is impossible to tell what is going
wrong. Are the offscreen windows the same size as your pictures? It
sounds like somewhere you are not specifying the correct rect (either in
PutImage or CopyWindow).
