alice-teacher Fwd: Delay when clicking and dragging objects in Alice 2

[Daniel Abeshouse]

I was going to reply.
Let me know if this is too much for the teachers list.


Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

This issue may be linked to screen magnification, graphics card drivers, or a not fully characterized interaction between graphics card, OpenGL, and Alice 2.

For magnification, ensuring Windows display is set at 100% may fix the problem.
If it does not, updating the graphics drivers might.
Finally, if the problem persists, you are probably in that third, under-characterized, category.

There is an issue on GitHub if you want to keep up with activity or try test builds:

> Hi everyone!

> I hope your semesters/school years are off to a great start. I have a few students complaining about a delay they experience when situating objects in Alice 2.5 and Alice 2.6 between the time that they click or make some other movement with their mouse and when they actually see the effect of that mouse click/movement in their Alice world. I experience a similar delay sometimes using my teacher station and it can be extremely frustrating. Our school desktops are running Windows 11. Does anybody have any suggestions as to how best to troubleshoot this?
