Cap blocks going Above Stack Blocks
I noticed that in the project editor, this is possible:
If I run a script with this, it won't run no matter what cap block it is.
So I'm not sure what is happening, or if this is a hard glitch
and please respond if you have any differences.
Thank you for your time :)
I've been testing this for about 30 minutes, so I'm pretty sure it is correct.
I know it's not supposed to do that, and it doesn't look right, However, this only happens in C blocks like “If < > then” blocks.
If I run a script with this, it won't run no matter what cap block it is.
You do this by placing a C block, putting any non-cap block in there, and put a cap block above it. This also works with the “Forever” block.
So I'm not sure what is happening, or if this is a hard glitch

I know this is weird, but what do you think the behavior should be? Not let you insert? Delete everything below? Other?

Well, I think what you mean is what should the blocks do when it is incorrectly stacked? I don't think it should delete everything under. Not letting you insert would do it. I know this is weird, but what do you think the behavior should be? Not let you insert? Delete everything below? Other?

Strange, have you reported this to the scratch team?

Nope, I'll give @Lightnin* a link to this discussion. Strange, have you reported this to the scratch team?

Hmm… I suppose it should just work similarly to trying to put a variable inside a
block. Don't have the white line appear, and don't snap it in.

Good Idea. Yeah. I think it used to, but I'm not exactly sure. Hmm… I suppose it should just work similarly to trying to put a variable inside ablock. Don't have the white line appear, and don't snap it in.

Ah hah! That is indeed a bug. Although it's basically just confined to the behavior of the blocks, right? It doesn't change the execution of the project.
