Keeping Your Scripts Neat

Keeping Your Scripts Neat

Hi Everyone
When creating projects, most people like to drag blocks anywhere around the script space. Some blocks may be overlapping others, and so it becomes harder to organise and keep track of your scripts. It isn't essential to keep your blocks neat and tidy, but it really does help. You don't even need to spend quite a lot of time dragging them in specific areas. Simply right-click > clean up > tidied. You can also add comments to your blocks to remember something about one of your scripts. Such as -

when gf clicked
repeat until <(timer) > [10]>// Add another block inbetween
  go to [mouse-pointer v]
end
think [Hmm....] for (3) secs
To do this: right click > add comment > type comment > drag comment.
I hope this helped you understand blocks more clearly, even if you already knew this routine.   - Jupitar

I was just contemplating about that too. Wouldn't this fit in at Questions About Scratch If so I am very sorry.

I think it should stay here, as he is trying to HELP people WITH keeping their SCRIPTS tidy, so they can check things easier.

Yes but the description of help with scripts is "Need help with your scratch project? Ask here!"

He is still technically helping with scripts, but you could ask the ST if you feel like it.
