Question for those using Alice ....

DS8 has been busy creating,hhhm is it called movies?....anyhow, he made one, saved it, then showed me a tutorial, and has now re-opened his movie. He needs to increase the duration for some text. However, he can't figure out how to get the actions on the screen for editing. It just has a blank screen ready for creating new actions. HHHHEEELLLPPPP! I figured I'd ask here before going to the Alice forum.

Thanks,
Dazey

Drag them at first. Then, following along the instruction, it will lead you to duration and other parts of the instruction.

Am I anywhere close to answering your question/

Well, we figured out how to increase the duration so that you have time to read the text but when he re-opened it, the previous code is not there for editing. You can play the movie just fine etc and it's waiting for new code but the old code is not there. Am I making sense?

Dazey (and still confuzed).

This is turning into a regular tech support post :-)

Has anyone used Processing? Processing

Interestingly enough, Scratch and *LOGO (which has tons of turtles instead of one) are both from the lab of the same professor at MIT. I used to work for him.

Do you guys find Alice easy to use? I dowloaded that and Scratch, and I found that my kids figured Scratch out a lot faster.
