Pausing sounds
Is there a way to pause sounds so that they can be resumed from the place they were paused?
Are you an aspiring home decorator? If so, please answer my question!

But that could be a Scratch Suggestion.

Re: Pausing sounds
Unfortunately, there isn't a pause block, but there are several alternatives. You could mute the sound by setting its volume to 0% (it's under the sound category), or simply stop the whole sound, and restart it later.

Re: Pausing sounds
Theoretically, there is. It would just take some time to start playing again.
First, check to see how long the song is. Then use these:
set volume to 100%
set "length so far" to 0
play sound "sound"
broadcast "start timer"
set sound playing to 1
When I receive "start timer"
forever if "sound playing"=1 and "length so far"<"length of song"
wait .1 second
change length so far by .1
When P clicked
stop all sounds
set "sound playing" to 0
When S clicked
set volume to 0%
play sound "sound"
wait "length so far" seconds
set volume to 100%
set "song playing" to 1
