Pen Size
Dear user(s),
I personally would like Scratch© to modify the “Pen Size” block. How I would like this to be done, is to have the X and Y inputs, so we can determine the pen size more accurately, and even put some operators in there too, to be even more accurate. If this can be done without modifying the block itself, please let me know, as well as the world! Thanks again!
Sincerely yours,
-A customer / user

Why I actually want this, if you're wondering, is because I'm trying to convert this into this.
Just so you know, I didn't make the first project, but I'm currently making the second!
In the first project's code, there is a part that basically calculates the X and Y of the pen size, with a formula that I'm able to convert into Scratch©, so don't worry about that.
Thanks again!

Is the suggestion for
?
What are the operators you are wanting?
set pen x size to () ::pen // horizontal size
set pen y size to () ::pen // vertical size
?
What are the operators you are wanting?

Or to compact it:
Never mind the operators; they're basically add-ons.
Set pen size to (Pen X: (10) Y: (10))
Never mind the operators; they're basically add-ons.

If possible, (and I personally think that this is just plain stupid,) we can add size modifiers:
IE:
set pen size to (Pen X: (10) Y: (10) Size: (Px))
IE:
(Pt)
(Px)
(Em)ETC.

set pen size to x: () y: () :: pen
change pen size by x: () y: () :: pen
(pen size x :: pen )
(pen size y :: pen )
Useful.

Scratch reporters can only return a single value. And a block input can only take a single value. So, the pen size block can't “act” on the extra values.
Px is pixels? What are Pt and Em?

Useful.It would be. But the concept could be confusing with
go to x: () y: (0)
and the other x- and y-position blocks.

I have an idea that maybe could give the same outcome for pen size.
How about a block to set the “tip” or “mark” of the pen to the shape of the current costume?
Then a costume could be the horizontal and vertical (shape) of the pen.

Smart! But then again, if that worked, it would just be better to clone the sprite, but not always…. TOO MANY PRO PEPL AND CONZ!

But those are the X and Y position blocks, versus the X and Y size blocks, so yeah it could be confusing, but then again, it might not be.
Good day/night, sir/ma'am!

I think that this should be added, but the current blocks should also be kept, to avoid this being too confusing to new players.
