Help with the development Of Patch - My mod!

I am working on a mod. This will be a very cool mod. I will need help though.
I have written 3 pages of probably over-ambitious ideas, yet I have only begun messing with squeak today. I have moved stuff around, made stuff look good, created an icon and deleted the share button, but I need help with the actual programming. I need some people to add blocks to it. I need advice. How do I save this as an image, and put it out there, when I've changed the logo so clicking the R no longer works? I'm confused. How do I use scratch normally, when the image saved is patch? Why do we have images anyway?
I need help.

Change pen to sprite - this will change the user's drawing into a sprite.
Stop all my scripts - Coding has been contributed
Scroll [right, left, up, down] [number] steps block
A few different base sprites...
Sample projects to be created after main dev.

Re: Help with the development Of Patch - My mod!

I'm pretty sure somebody's made this before, but this is my fresh coding of it. The 'stop all my scripts' block:

Code:

stopAllMine
    self scripts do: [:t1 | t1 stop]

Brilliant, but the blog doesn't support .image. SO support for the mod here will do. sorry you can't use it...

Re: Help with the development Of Patch - My mod!

Umm.. probably a stupid question, but is there a way of copying the shape of a cap block??? I can't draw very well.

Print screen it, then fill in the text in an image program.  wink

Re: Help with the development Of Patch - My mod!

Ok. I must be gone mad. DO I have to be using squeak all-in-one or can I just use scratch with fill-screen turned off????

Shift-click around the area where the R was when the Scratch logo was in the top left-hand corner (where your mod's logo is now) and click "save image for end-user", then reopen the mod. If you want to keep Scratch open, middle- (or Alt-)click the Scratch area (anything other than the gray area), make sure it says ScratchFrame at the bottom, click the X in the top left-hand corner (not the one on the window bar!), click anywhere in the gray area, click "open..." on the menu that comes up, and click Scratch. That should work as well.

(If you've changed the names of any of these, then just look for what you changed the name to.)

if you want to make a block a cap do this:
1) Go to Scratch-Blocks -> CommandBlockMorph -> accessing -> isStop
2) Add the following code:

| (selector = #whatYourMethodIsCalled)
