Two questions about a timer and self-paced reading - Hyeonah - 04-29-2021

Hello!
I have two questions about a timer and self-paced reading.
First, I coded "countdown_visible": true, to time the text.
But I notice a gray-colored number appears which indicates how many seconds left to move on to the next screen.
Is there a way to change this number into something like "You can move on to the next screen in x seconds"?
Second, I want to use self-paced reading. 
When I check how each token appears, I notice the direction saying "Press the "[SPACE]" key to advance".
Is there a way to remove this direction?
Thanks!

Hi, for the first question, the answer is unfortunately no. For the second question, you can find the "key_advance_instruction" property that does what you need on our documentation page: https://help.findingfive.com/api/stimuli.html#tokenized_text
