Make C Blocks Collapsible

-Osiris-

It would be easier to organize code if you could collapse C blocks such as the if block, forever loop, etc.
This would be useful because you could collapse code that you don't need to see at the moment, meaning the code you do need would be more accessible.

if<>then ▼ :: control //You would put comments on this part to remind yourself of what everything does.

if <> then ▲{
...::grey
}:: control

What would happen with the If/Else block?

if <> then ▲▲ {

 ...::grey

}else   ▲{
...::grey
}::control

Support because this would leave more space for more scripts and it would mean less scrolling, which means this is necessary for organization.

Imagine having a lot of if then else blocks, it takes up too much space and I would rather not see all of that. I definitely see a good use for this block.

Support! This would be useful to organize my code better.

Mega support, if you are not working on that section of code, then you don’t really need to see it. Collapsing it would save space and make it easier to see other sections of the code that you may need to see at the same time.

Huge support. it could be useful for making things easier

Wao how is that possible

Uh Squidward? Yes Spongebob? You might want to look at this… HOLY SHRIMP! If we don't act now, well, think about how many clams I'll have to cough up JUST to see an extra portion of nick.com… or worse, to see ALL of it in general! *** Reader! This is not a fictional sketch! It actually is, but that's not the point. Learn more at the link that Spongebob left at the first instance of “this”.

It's not exactly a duplicate. That topic is about collapsible sections of code, which would be a new c-shaped block that is collapsible. This topic is about making all c-blocks collapsible.

It would be stressful to put this every time we want to put a c-block that we can shorten:

um no title at all, lol... {
if <> then
...
end
} :: grey

ATM they are not individually collapsible, but in Scratch 3.0 you can right click on the stage and select collapse. This will collapse all active c blocks into bars.

What if you wanted to collapse specific c blocks and not all of them?

That's a leftover feature from Blockly and they might temporarily remove it until they have a better way of representing it
