This is the intended release for Fall, 2013. One of the biggest fixes is that the Mac version of Alice 2 now correctly displays images and objects with transparent elements. For example, on the Mac version of Alice 2, the wings of the faeries were always displayed with a black box around them. This box is no longer visible.<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">If you are currently running Alice 2. 3, you do not need to do a complete download and install of this new version, but you can go to Help -> Update Software, and the option to "Update Alice 2.3" should be available.
