alice-teacher A2.4.1 While event

[Don Slater]

This is the same issue, and it is a problem with Alice 2.4.1… We are working on this and will soon have a fix that will be released soon. 

You may want to go back to version 2.3.5, available on the Alce 2 Previous Releases page, until the new release comes out…

Thank you for your patience,
