alice-teacher For All Together checking a list

[James Vanderhyde]

Try "for all in order" instead of "for all together". I have seen that work better for things like this. Logically both should work, but it seems like "for all together" doesn't work with "if then" the way we would expect.

We used a "for all together" statement within an infinite loop using a list with all the boxes inside the list. We then use a "if then" inside the "for all together" statement and declare a variable we are watching true if it is in the box and false if it is not. The problem we are having is that the statement only recognizes the first item in the list, and we want to have it recognize all the boxes. Please help us with suggestions.  Thanks!
