Comments Block...

There should be a Comments Block for Insertion into a Program to remind the user or voyeurs what a section of code does...!

Re: Comments Block...

They used to have a block like that, but it was removed in Scratch 1.2.  In the current version, there is a different commenting system (right click and select "add comment" to see what I mean)
I personally think blocks are better, because the comment tags don't stay with a script when you move it.


Discuss future Scratch RPGs, online games, and more!

On a Mac, That's Command Click in an Open Space...
You can also Take SnapShots of The Programming Window...!

It's actually ctrl+click.
In 1.4 you can attach comment blocks to a certain block, so you don't need to keep on moving the comment if you move the script. It also better explains where the comment is pointed to.

That's cool so it's adding on to the comment block of 1.2!
