alice-teacher Alice 3 Mouse events

[Don Slater]

You may need to update the video drivers of your machine. Use the drivers from the manufacturer of your video card, not the more generic Windows Update drivers. See the following link:

If this is problem in setting up a Scene, you may be able to use modifier keys manipulate the models <cntrl-click> to turn a model left and right, and <shift-click> to move an object up and down. Also the one-shot menu (right-click on an object and select procedures from the context menu) may also allow you to manipulate and set the object.

But it sounds like this is more of an event-related issue?

Let us know if you continue to have problems.

Later,

I have learned this at least by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
