alice-teacher Alice 3.2 on a PC

[Don Slater]

This has been a very vexing issue for us, as we have trouble duplicating the problem. At this time it seems to be system / machine dependent…

We would ask anyone who is experiencing this problem to send us specific information about their setup, it would be helpful. This would include:

	Manufacturer:
	Operating System / Version:
	Graphics card:
	Amount of memory: 
	Java version:
	Anything else that might be helpful:

Thank you,

Don Slater

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.
--- Henry David Thoreau

The true object of all human life is play. -- G.K. Chesterton

It will work perfectly for a particular scene, and then if the student tries another scene, they can't use the "handles" at all. When they click on the object, it automatically switches the selection to "this" and they can only move the camera.
