how to print a scratchblock without the color inside
Hello
I would want a fonction which will be able to do this job …

don't look the script ( it is only a test for testing if all colors are transformed )
It will be a very good thing if a tool in the scratch menu do this job
I am a teacher and it is very expensive to print script with colors for all the schoolboys.
But when i print script with grey colors instead of real colors it is not clear for the schoolboys
and if I ask schoolboys to color the grey colors with their pencils it is not pretty
So i have to make the transformation
Schoolboys could have a notebook (with real paper ) where scripts example are written
they could have the job to colorize the script
And for the teacher it is very convenient to organize scratch activities
I have only a few computers in my class room and when i decide to have a scratch' s activity it is better if schoolboys have also paper support.
They can colorize, cut and reorganize the elements of the script on the paper even they have no computer
Actually to do the transformation i use http://blob8108.github.io/scratchblocks2/
and after I use pdfcreator to print the page in pdf or png format.
For me it is not a problem but think to use scratchblock and use pdf creator because before real printing is not known from a lot of people.
I think that if this function is integrated in scratch menu it's will be very serviceablefor teachers.
So can I hope that this fonction will be add to the scratch menu ?
Sorry for my english
Alain

how to print a scratchblock without the color inside
You can change the block colors of specific categories only in the online editor. Shift-click the Edit menu, and read the article on the wiki Edit Block Colors. ![](//cdn.scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/__1382196362__/djangobb_forum/img/smilies/smile.png)

how to print a scratchblock without the color inside
I suppose I could add this as an option for the generator you linked above (http://blob8108.github.io/scratchblocks2), if you think that feature would be useful. And you can then print from there easily enough.

how to print a scratchblock without the color inside
Thanks for your answer
here is the same script than above but in french langage
![](http://imageshack.us/a/img203/5268/n8ef.png)
I have tried Turkey3's tips for this script
It is good but i have to use a soft to invert color
![](http://imageshack.us/a/img801/286/ward.png)
and I take a snapshot of my computer
then
I use photo filtre to do that
probably I test with other brightness but it is late this evening in France
I will try to use imagemagick and make a batch file wich automatiquely exec the transformation…
Thanks to blob8108 for the proposition but for my schoolboys, there is the problem of the langage
Even i put my script in french, the result is in english
So I think it will be a hard job to adapt your script for all langages but i think that it could be interesting for native english langage .
I think that is will be a good thing that as in scratch 1.4 , scratch 2.0 give the possibility to export a gif picture of all the scripts lied to a spirite
It will be better if background could be printed without colour
So for the moment i have two possibilities
Use turkey tips and use photo philtre or imagemagick
Use scratch 1.4 and photofiltre or image magick to decolorize the picture
Thanks again
Alain

how to print a scratchblock without the color inside
You might want to see if there is some sort of “Value Invert” filter. That should swap white for black, but not green with purple.
