A variable is not a sprite. So, it does not make sense to move it in the context of the Scratch language.

Does it really matter?

You cannot trust any of my posts because I am dumb. Some may be right, though.

I believe this is the oldest duplicate.

Anyway, I think I am going to support. It could make a creative project, like placing a variable in a funny place. It could also help get it out of the way without hiding it.

We already have enough variable blocks, adding even more would make scrolling down to the list blocks even more painful.

OK. Thanks for clarifying.

Except in other programming languages you can create functions, that are basically the same a custom blocks… (At least from what I've gathered)

For new scratchers who haven't learned how to create more advanced GUI, I don't see what is wrong with this. There are plenty of things existent in Scratch that aren't in any other programming language. Such as:
if on edge, bounce

say []

pen down
Also, displaying variables themselves isn't something other programming languages have. Technically, it can be done with more effort, but so can those examples. Support.

The “if on edge, bounce” block is basically a custom block that is built into scratch.
The "say “ block is basically just a way to display text, there for it technically is in other languages if you take the time to make it.
The ”pen down“ along with all the other pen blocks are just drawing on the screen, and if you took the time you could make it with other languages.
And the displaying variables is just one way to show them, and is basically just like the ”say " block, as it's just displaying info, and isn't actually showing the actual variable, so if you took your time in other languages you could make displaying variables happen.

Yet, are you actually seeing the variable, or just a fancy way to display it? This seems to be one thing that isn't the most well known, the way you said to display variables is basically the same way that they display them on scratch, making them more “fancy”. I don't see why you added the “#rekt

” but okay…

Scratch already has features not present in any other language, like the variable readout and the glide to blocks.
Edit: I agree, but if they have variable readouts they need a proper method of placing it.

if you wanted to get crazy into the coding of these blocks, you would see that they are more than just a "glide to x y",but are instead, more like a custom block, where you make something more complicated out of simpler pieces.

all in all, no support, since as others have said, variables are for storing, not displaying.

Support - I would support any suggestion that gives more control over where and how variables are displayed.

It would be nice to be able to line them up properly.
