Pen Eraser
After reading (and answering) this Stackoverflow question, it seemed like adding a “pen eraser” would be a nice idea (especially for 3.0). I'm not sure how difficult this is technically, but it would certainly be a nice feature to have.

Actually, it could probably be implemented like this…
set pen color to [ ]…but with the white with the red diagonal line we all know from the Sprite Editor.

Actually, it could probably be implemented like this…Well, if you were trying to erase something on a backdrop, you are also kind of erasing the backdropset pen color to [ ]…but with the white with the red diagonal line we all know from the Sprite Editor.

But what about ctrl + z?I think @PullJosh wants the ability to erase pen once it is drawn on the stage, e.g. A pen mouse trail, or something like that.

Duplicate of this. It's been merged now.
I think the best way would be
Actually, it could probably be implemented like this…Transparent pen already exists (although you can't get it with the colour picker), and this might be confused with that or cause some technical problems.set pen color to [ ]…but with the white with the red diagonal line we all know from the Sprite Editor.
I think the best way would be
set pen mode to [pen v] :: penwhich would also allow for more types of pen if they are needed in the future.
set pen mode to [eraser v] :: pen

I think that this is a great idea! But there is a work around. For instance: the snake game can have everything clear for every frame. you just have to keep a list of where the snake is(and make a script that updates it). That will also make it rounded on both ends.
foreverI give semi-support. For the fact that most pen games just keep track of everything and redraws it every frame. But erasing will make things easier for new scratchers.
clear
in a custom block with run without screen refresh vvv
set [count v] to [0]
repeat (length of [x or y snake v] :: list)
change [count v] by [1]
go to x: (item (count) of [x snake v] :: list) y: (item (count) of [y snake v] :: list)
pen down
end
pen up
end

There must be a reason we don't have this, but there should be an eraser for the pen. Maybeeraser down ::pen
eraser up ::pen
I though of this because someone in the Help With Scripts wanted to know how to erase snake tails, and I told him to record X and Y in a list and come by with an eraser and cover it with the backdrop color… But what if the backdrop is different colors? A workaround I can picture would still distort the backdrop. I imagine this would simply use a function similar to “clear,” but focus only on a small portion of the screen.
Strong support Pen Eraser. its a basic feature.

Total Support.
There is a quite-hard workaround.
[ eraser v] down::penThe reason is obvious, what the OP said. We need it, if we need to erase a certain part of the pen, without destroying the background.
[ eraser v] up::pen
There is a quite-hard workaround.
- You have to add the current color of the background and then add that to a list and add all the x coordinates and y coordinates of a certain position to a list and then if the erase mode is on, touching mouse-pointer and mouse down, pen down and set pen color to the current color of the x and y position
- We can do the same with the clones and then add
When I start as clone, if touching mouse-pointer and mouse-down, then delete this clone
