Especially since people are posting stories. It would be like a quote box, but the text won't show until you press "spoiler" or something like that. It would be a great way to save space. The tags would be like this: [spoiler]Lookit meeeeeee[/spoiler].

Who agrees?

ProgramCAT · 2012-02-02 19:24:03

Is it really necessary though? I agree that it might be useful in certain situations, but surely you could just not look at it?

imnotbob · 2012-02-02 19:31:53

It's just that long stories take up a lot of room.

imnotbob · 2012-02-03 22:39:19

Bump.

technoboy10 · 2012-02-03 22:48:17

hmm It seems a tad unnecessary to me. A possible solution would be to make your text an unreadable color that would only be readable when you highlight it with your mouse.

trinary · 2012-02-03 22:50:29

Just use the [color] tags, like this:

Code:

[color=transparent]Invisible text you do not want to spoil[/color]

Agentpieface · 2012-02-03 23:05:22

I support 50%, because I agree with trinary but want this to happen hmm

I don't mean like secrets or whatever, I mean so stories take up less space in a post.

Support

It'd also help make different sections of a long guide or something.

Maybe instead, an "unfold" button that shows the whole story when you press it.

Purika · 2012-02-04 07:46:58

It is a good idea, but not that necessary. I like PlutoIsHades's idea about the unfold button.
If you read this, you are cool.

Mokat · 2012-02-04 09:36:29

I don't see why this would be necessary. You could just use some code (which has a scrollbar if it's really long.)

Code:

That's exactly what I mean. Though I would do it chapter-by-chapter if it's long.

@Mokat: I find code tags make it harder to read with the scroll tags and think it should be used for, well, code.

The thing is though, it would probably take a while to develop, and it's not really essential. It would be better if the Scratch Team concentrated on other stuff, in my honest opinion.

wolvesstar97 · 2012-02-09 23:03:56

Aw. You did it. Well, this solves the spoiler problem! Just make the text transparent!

DONT HIGHLIGHT THIS POST!! REALLY!

The [transparent] tag doesn't work on Internet Explorer, use [color=#dedfdf] instead tongue If you want invisible text in a quote, use [color=#f1f1f1]

ProgramCAT · 2012-02-10 04:03:56

I would rather the Scratch programmers focused on Scratch 2.0 instead of this.

spoiler code wouldn't be that hard....
I'll even make one now! smile

Use the invisible text

scimonster · 2012-03-18 09:54:26

Stop saying to use invisible text. What's wanted is something to collapse, and take up less room.

Thank you. Invisible text won't help at all.

RedRocker227 · 2012-03-18 13:02:55

I've changed my mind actually, I guess it would be useful. It can get annoying when there's a really long post I'm not interested in.

scimonster · 2012-03-18 13:42:13

I could make an extension (actually, I already have, for a different forum) that allows collapsing of quote and code boxes. If people put the stuff in a quote, it would be collapsible. smile

That would be cool! I'll see if my parents will let me download it (they don't like me downloading stuff) when you make it smile

I agree. I just don't think It's a necessity.
