Ferdinand,

I recall a similar trouble with 3.5. I did not try to look too far into the 
code, I found that if I turned on acceleration, 'backed out' of the project, 
and then re-entered it it would be accelerated. Not a neat solution, but it 
had the merit of letting you play with the accelerated wonderland quickly.

regards,
nicholas
