alice-teacher Alice 3 equivalent of while events

[Vanderhyde, James]

Don, thanks. I see that that works nicely for key events. See screenshot for how I did it. Duration 0 works for 1 frame of animation, so you can get precise control. The key events are even more flexible because of the heldKeyPolicy. But my hands are really tied with mouse control, because there is no heldMousePolicy.

James,
We have not implemented that mouse event for Alice 3. The closest we come is with keyPress events and using the add details modifiers heldKeyPolicy and multipleEventPolicy. See the attached screen shot for an example. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Has anyone in the community found any other work-arounds?

All the best,
Don Slater

In Alice 2, we used to use “while the mouse is pressed” and other such “while” events. Is there an equivalent in Alice 3?
