Easier way of combining "Join", "And" and "Or" blocks.

More like this?
join
Then we could have:
join4
join7
etc.

That could be rather useful!
Semi-support-ish. It's not really urgent and doesn't really bother me, personally..

Yup! That's exactly what I had meant. It's more of a quality-of-life thing

I agree that a
join#
would be quite nice, though I do believe that they is sorta an easy work around (that does include using multiple
(join [] [])
blocks xD ) Though obviously the workaround wouldn't be as good.

Edit: since the workaround isn't that good, I support!

Edit: I made a some what simple work around with 8 joins but it's no where near what could be done with this block.

Yeah! This block would make the time of linking variables alot less, and I think it would be great!

I like the idea but i don't think it would be easy for ST to implement because the block has to change based on arguments in the block and this doesn't happen with any other blocks

Easier way of combining "Join", "And" and "Or" blocks.

better way:
joinhello world
when you click the arrow, another input is added like this
joinhello world from high
if you click the left arrow, then one input will be removed

Brilliant!
Support, I think this would be easier to use and practical ^^

I do not support this suggestion as fields with multiple inputs would require too much of a change in how scratch works for it to be feasible for the development of scratch 3.0.

This is not my idea! It is the way it works in Snap!
I also think the if block should
ififelse
the first arrow can add else ifs
ifelseifelseifelse

Could you clarify on what you mean? I'm guessing that your point is that ST wouldn't be able to add such feature as it'd change most of Scratch's programming, right?

Support, it'd allow way more complex projects that'd be small and compact.

That’s what they meant, but I don’t know if they’re right or wrong.
By the way, this block is in Snap https://snap.berkeley.edu

Yeah, I don’t know either. I kind of doubt it, though.

BTW, I’m on my school iPad, so I can’t check out the link.

Sorry for not responding quickly, I didn´t see this in my inbox. The idea with the arrows is brilliant! Thanks all for sharing your ideas!

How about when you right click it, it can give you an option to change the number of strings? Wait, just saw the arrow idea. Never mind.

You get my support.

The scratch team has definetly overcome harder things, but now we need them to see this.

@Paddle2See (I'm not sure if this makes a thing popup to bring you here but here goes) You're the only scratch team member that i know the name of, so can we have your opinion on this block? (look at the stuff before this)
