wait until <not <mouse down?>>

deck26

forever
wait until <mouse down?>
whatever
wait until <not <mouse down?>>

end

TheLogFather

Or:

when this sprite clicked // or maybe "when stage clicked", if that's more appropriate for your situation
...whatever... :: grey

Note that using above will still run the script on a click even after the project was stopped (unless you put in some scripting to detect and prevent that…)

This might be more suitable:

forever
wait until <<mouse down?> and <touching [mouse pointer v] ?>>
...
wait until <not <<mouse down?> and <touching [mouse pointer v]?>>>
end

If they want the click to be on a particular spite, yes, but that wasn't actually specified. The key is the ‘wait until not’ anyway.

Also note this gets triggered by holding down the mouse button while shaking the cursor on & off the sprite (which may or may not be acceptable for the project in question…)

Oops, this should work:

forever
wait until <<mouse down?> and <touching [mouse pointer v] ?>>
...
wait until <not <mouse down?>>
end

when this sprite clicked

...

wait until <not <touching [ mouse-pointer] ?>>

notabot113

Hope I helped!

No problem! Go to the relevant subforum (Help With Scripts is right in this case) and click the blue “New Topic” button near the top right of the screen.

I don't think that any of them work because I tried some of them in my project.
And by the way what block is dot dot dot?

Fieryunicat-1

can someone please tell me how to make it to where when you hold the mouse button you don't get points but when you click you do get points.

This was necroposted on by the way, look at the dates. I realized when I saw “TheLogFather” as a username.

They were asking about the grey block that shows up in scratchblocks when you type 3 dots.
