NOTE: I accidently closed the other thread, the once suggesting x/y positions on lists, including lengths, heights. I couldn't open it back because I don't know how to so I just decided to make a new topic.

What Are You Requesting
Today, I am requesting blocks that change a list. I'm sorry, it's not about colors, I can't be sure if that is necessary, but here's the fun part.

move list [list v] to x:() y:() :: list

change position of list [list v] by x:() y:() :: list

set size of list [list v] to length:() height:() :: list

change size of list [list v] by length:() height:() :: list

(x position of list [list v] :: list )

(y position of list [list v] :: list )

(length of list [list v] :: list ) // Because of confusion, I suggest changing the other length of list block to "total items of list []"

(height of list [list v] :: list )

How Did You Get The Idea?
Many users were suggesting x and y positions of variables:

move variable [variable v] to x:() y:() :: variables

change position of variable [variable v] by x:() y:() :: variables

glide [variable v] for () secs to x:() y:() :: variables

glide [variable v] for () secs by x:() y:() :: variables

(x position of variable [variable v] :: variables )

(y position of variable [variable v] :: variables )

I realized lists weren't included. There were no previous topics about this suggestions (besides the one I accidently closed).

I think a glide block would be useful too:

glide list [list v] for () secs to x:() y:() :: list

glide list [list v]for () secs by x:() y:() :: list

Is There Any Purpose For This?

// Here are some examples, such as moving a list to a certain position if a notification appears.

when I receive [notification v]
change position of list [leaderboard v] by x:(10) y:(10) :: list
...

// Using a computer simulator such as browsers:

define shorten window by (amount)
...
change size of list [list v] by length:((0) - (amount)) height:((0) - (amount)) :: list
...

// Detecting Where A List Is At:

when green flag clicked
if <(x position of list [active users v] :: list ) = (x position)> then
say [This is the active users. Active users...]
...

I also cannot wait for cloud lists too!

(NOTE: Will not update list from now on due to large amounts of counting in the future)

Total support!

Can you please explain why?

Also, you should just report the other one to be opened rather than making a new one.

The problem I have with this is that it adds a lot of locks but I don't think it would be used much and would just make things confusing.

At this point one is going to be closed and the other open, so live and let live I guess. If the other one had a bunch of replies we could merge it.

Support. This would be so useful!

when [timer v] > (-1)
forever
if <@greenFlag clicked? :: events > then
do [bump v] :: operators
end
end

What was the other thread about this?

Support! This would be useful if I was making a game and I wanted a list to be able to move to different places at more then one part of the game.

Support,there should be these blocks for variables too.

No support
(1.5 reasons + workaround)

—If you're going to do this for variables and lists, people will complain about not having
these for the other variables, just a few for example:

(volume)
(costume #)
(answer)
(direction)
(x position)

Etc. (There's alot!)

People would ask to control X and Y positions for these reporters too, especially timer.
If you would do it for 2 things, do it for all, but that means all of the menus for blocks
will become clogged these reporter options.
And plus, I personally don't think the variables look great in general.

**A workaround would be to make custom reporters for your projects, using clones or stamps and costumes that have numbers.**

1. It's less likely that a user would show any other reporter value than variables. Approximate 97% (not an exaggeration, just a guess, and I've seen users do this.)
2. Custom reporters have not arrived yet.

I supported in the other topic, so can you add me here?

You know how long I've been finding your post? 70 seconds! You wouldn't obey, so-called protective 60 second rule…
