    example(s)

    The currently supported Ibex controllers are: + [AcceptabilityJudgment](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#acceptabilityjudgment){:target="_blank"}: makes it straightforward to present a sentence together with a rating scale; it is a combination of the FlashSentence and Message controllers - press above to see more information + [DashedAcceptabilityJudgment](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#dashedacceptabilityjudgment){:target="_blank"}: like AcceptabilityJudgment, but it uses DashedSentence instead of FlashSentence; this is useful for running speeded acceptability judgment tasks (which otherwise require some rather creative use of shuffle sequences) - press above to see more information + [DashedSentence](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#dashedsentence){:target="_blank"}: sentence is displayed as a sequence of dashes - press above to see more information + [FlashSentence](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#flashsentence){:target="_blank"}: sentence is displayed for a certain defined period - press above to see more information + [Form](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#form){:target="_blank"} collects data from an HTML form presented to the participant - press above to see more information + [Message](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#message){:target="_blank"}: message is displayed to user, and it is usually calling for the action - press above to see more information + [Question](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#question){:target="_blank"}: question is displayed to user, and it is usually calling for the action - press above to see more information + [Separator](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#separator)"{:target="_blank"}: controls if the previous item was completed - press above to see more infomration + [VBox](https://github.com/addrummond/ibex/blob/master/docs/manual.md#vbox){:target="_blank"}: makes it possible to combine multiple controllers to form a single controller - press above to see more information
