Don is absolutely right... no dice in the gallery. After reading
this thread, however, I began<br>
to think about the possibility of making your own die using a couple
of the shapes in the Gallery.<br>
<br>
I did this once in Alice 2, but then we built a die for that gallery
and I threw my "custom made"<br>
in the trash.<br>
<br>
Here is the idea: <br>
1. Create a box object but change its size to a small cube. <br>
2. Position small discs (change size and make a black color) to be
the dots on each side. <br>
Make the vehicle of each disc be the cube, so when the die is
tossed (combination of turn and roll) the discs stick to the <br>
cube. <br>
3. Write procedures to toss the die and determine which side is up.
<br>
<br>
This would take some time and patience... but I think it would
work. Maybe one of your students would like this as <br>
a project?<br>
<br>
If you get it to work, perhaps you would be willing to save it out
as a custom class and share it with<br>
teachers on this list?<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
Wanda<br>
