@Librarians: You may want to check out the website development thread, I've added page editing support for some pages!

I'll be sure to! Last time I went on (the other day) everything said it was being worked on.

There's an "admin" link at the bottom of the pages in the footer  smile

Yeah I saw.

Great idea, but I don't quite see why we should use that if were not devs.  tongue 

Also, I found no where is the site even mentioned on this forum, and on the website dev thread it is not listed on the first post.  yikes
Though since it is in dev I see why it is not on this forum, but you should at least post it on the development forum.  smile

Just to ask, since about 50% (of what i've seen) of the images on the Block Libary, can't you remove the [GET ANTIDOTE MESSAGE HERE] message?

I'm not sure we can yet, because the images in the first post haven't been transferred.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

NXII, I found a bug in your block renderer, I tried inserting a color arg morph (%c) and it changed the shape of the block to a mix between of a c block and a reporter.

It seems like a BYOB c-shaped input, which CAN be on reporters.

What do you mean? %c is a color arg with a palette and %C is a color arg without a palette.

Yes, but he did it this way to allow for the BYOB blocks, which allow a C insert. Hence the %c for it.

Because there is no visual difference between %c and %C so why have 'em both when one can represent c inputs?

Code:

('save pen trails to %s' #- #savePenTrailesTo:)

Code:

savePenTrailesTo: t1

Well of course if you type in random rubbish, it's not going to produce a result you are expecting.

It's not a glitch, it's a syntax error. You've failed to specify a blockspec, category etc.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

I made a "for-loop" block, similar to the "# from (x) to (y)" block made by MathWizz, but it takes a list.

Block image:
http://bit.ly/KLfvow
Block script image:
http://bit.ly/KLfIYM
Sprite file with the block:
http://bit.ly/KmvWmC

I'm new to the whole block-sharing thing, although I've used this site a lot to see other people's blocks. So, please let me know if I did anything wrong in the process of sharing my block. I'm looking forward to uploading more of the cool blocks I've created, but I'm doing this one alone first to see if I did it right.

Also, I'd prefer if these files find a home on your server, since I'd rather not host the files on my Public Dropbox indefinitely.

Thanks!

block, # and item are upvars, list is a list input

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Here's a BYOB block I made called "range."

It's similar to the range function in Racket and Python. It takes three arguments, possibly (range 0 5 1), and returns a list of the range of numbers from the first argument up to but not including the second argument, using the third argument to step each time.

Example:
(range from 0 to 5 step 1) = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4)
It also works in reverse if you provide a negative step.
(range from 5 to 0 step -2) = (5, 3, 1)

Here are the files.
Image of block:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/43555158/Temp/BYOB/rangeBlock/rangeBlock.gif
Image of block script:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/43555158/Temp/BYOB/rangeBlock/rangeBlockScript.gif
Sprite file with block:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/43555158/Temp/BYOB/rangeBlock/rangeBlock.ysp

Enjoy!

For the show and hide cursor blocks, just use the same code as the blocks in the Scratch section of the block library. I know how to make the  change cursor block in Scratch, but I don't know how to make lists in Panther without opening the browser.
