Re: Lists problem online

Most of the problems with lists online seem to be fixed now.  The only two things that I know of are:

1.  Text entered into a list item from another list or a variable using the Set block sometimes gets set to the wrong case (upper or lower). 

2. Items can not be entered into a List Watcher online.  Item entry only works in Development mode.

Interesting.  I’ve never seen my Sorting Bubbles program work online:

It uses lists and I had assumed that the Scratch team was still working out bugs in their Java version.

Would you mind trying to run it online?  If it works for you then I’ll look for some Java problem on my system.  (I’m using XP, Java Version 6 Update 7.)

Thanks

Never mind, it was a user error. I created my project with a beta version of 1.3.  The beta had an option on the insert list block of  "first".   Even though that option is not available in the official 1.3, the IDE version of  Scratch still supports it but the Java online version apparently does not.   After replacing that one block my project now works online.

I looked at your project.  Did you have timing problems with some of your loops?  I ask because I noticed some of forever loops that have wait blocks with small amounts of time.  You also have an initialization section that you repeat 10 times.

One of the differences that I’ve noticed with the online version of Scratch is that the timing is not exactly the same. 

I’ve added uploaded a modified version that uses a broadcast block when the level changes.
