You don't need help figuring out what I want.

Same way VB and C++ do it.

PUBLIC variables.

Except it is already defined as private. I am trying to make a block that mirrors the shift-click-R menu.

self reportVar: 'variable name"

or self readVar: 'variable name'

I can't remember which.

it looks like readVar but it's not working.

|t1|
t1_ self readVar:'global scratch variable name'.
^ t1

_____________________________________-
line 1 declares the variable t1
line 2 sets the variable t1 to the global variable "global scratch variable name". (remember the single speech marks ( ' not " ) and the period at the end of the line.
the last line reports the variable t1. If you make the block a reporter, you should get it reporting the value of the global variable! Voila!

Can it only see public variables? I want to make one that tells whether fill screen is on or off.

No idea. there probably is a way, but I don't know...

How does a block read another category's variables?
