General question about recording eye tracking data while using a software

[UBela]

Hi,
I recently started working with Titta and want to record ET data while using a specific software.
From the demos I was under the impression that Titta needs a PsychoPy visual.Window in order to record data. My first guess was to create a transparent window in PsychoPy and use that as an overlay but I could not find a way to change the alpha value of a window.
If it is possible to record data without the need for a visual.Window how can I safely close the calibration Window and start the recording process of the screen?

Hi, Happy to hear that you found your way to Titta! Titta does not need a PsychoPy window to record data. After calibration, you can close the PsychoPy window (win.close) and then start the recording (look at the read_me.py demo) Thanks, Marcus
