alice-teacher Alice 2 bug reporting

[Vanderhyde, James]

Matjaz,

Yes, I was suggesting that there may be a bug in Alice 2 that is using the localized decimal mark for the screen grab file name, instead of the file system “dot”. I am guessing the Java code is using NumberFormat to generate the two-digit part of the file name, and NumberFormat is automatically converting the . into a , using localization.

James, impossible. Localisation have nothing with a file system. But maybe you have right, and boys use localisation system for defining file what is also a bug.

It may be his localization—some computers use , for the decimal point.

Hi Matjaz- I'm currently running version 2.4.3 on a Windows 10 machine, and I don't see that error. Maybe check "Screen Grab" preferences to confirm the destination folder.

Don, according to the bug: option Take Picture propose commas instead full stop. This makes troubles in case you need to create massive illustrations and it has to be renamed in OS.

After a few years off, I am teaching with Alice 2 again. Is there someplace I can report bugs as I find them? Is anyone still working on Alice 2?
