From cbovell at nburlington.com Fri Jan 10 09:07:28 2025 From: cbovell at nburlington.com (Carlos Bovell) Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2025 14:07:28 +0000 Subject: alice-teacher Alice 2.6 lagging on our school computers Message-ID: Hi, Alice 2.6 is lagging badly on our computers. When we click on objects to position them in a world, there is a considerable delay between when we click on an object and when it comes into focus. Also, when we run our worlds that have the arrows control the camera, moving backwards works fine, but moving forward lags so much that we cannot view the worlds in a meaningful way. What can we do to help correct this? Thanks for taking my email. Best, Carlos Bovell Northern Burlington High School -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

January's will probably happen next week. When I run Alice 2.5, there's no delay. Is that version still downloadable somewhere?
