Most screenshots are almost impossible without this block because there is only one way to detect this which is place a bunch of if blocks with touching color blocks in them in a way that causes them to be massive. Please add this block!

add (color I'm touching :: sensing reporter) to [Screenshot v]

<touching color (color i'm touching :: sensing reporter)?> // Always true.

And maybe hexadecimal format too, which can be used by a workaround showed in this post

Nice.

(last key pressed :: sensing )

(sprite touching :: sensing ) // reports "Null" if the sprite isn't touching anything, reports the sprite name if so.

(color touching :: sensing ) // reports touched color.

What would happen if the sprite is touching multiple colours?
Would it report the average color? The one the sprite centre is touching?

It seems like it may be a good idea; but really, what would happen if the sprite were to be touching multiple colours at the same time? Would it report a blend of all the colours, the colour that the sprite is touching the most (for example, lots of green, not a lot of red, reports green), or simply the one the centre is touching? You really would need to clarify this aspect.

EDIT: Whoops, looks like the majority of this was said in the post above.

How about blending the colors like with Minecraft sheep? And the color that the sprite is touching most if the colors can't blend.

Same as above.

Or the centre.

OOORRRR maybe make some lists! All non-user created reporters are variables. Why not add some lists? And Sensing versions of list access blocks! (Not add, replace, insert or delete.)

(sprite I'm touching :: sensing)
(color I'm touching :: sensing)
(item (1 v) of [color I'm touching v] :: sensing)
(length of [sprites I'm touching v] :: sensing) // see Charles's post
<[color I'm touching v] contains [thing] ? :: sensing>

They should add something like this:

(touching color :: sensing)

that reports the color it's mainly touching, or list all colors in a list:

(touching colors :: list)

with these blocks to go with it:

<[touching colors v] contains (#ffffff) ? ::sensing>
(length of [ touching colorsv] :: sensing)

Sorry I messed up the blocks

Sorry (again) that one block already exists

Bump because of a duplicate

Mockup (2.0):

([colors v] that I’m touching ::sensing)
([sprites v] that I’m touching ::sensing)

(number of [colors being touched v] ::sensing)
(number of [sprites being touched v] ::sensing)

(item ( v) of [colors being touched v] ::sensing)
(item ( v) of [sprites being touched v] ::sensing)

If the drop-down menu for those two blocks is for selecting if one or multiple color(s) are touching the sprite, I don't think we would need that, as just the singular option would probably be enough, and you can use " and " operator blocks for touching multiple colors
