Hi, I am making a mouse trail maker and I don't know how to make sliders to change the color/size/ect. Can someone tell me or gimme a project tutorial link? Please?

If you have a Variable on screen, you can right click it and change what type of display it is. Such as readout, large display, and slider!

Can you say that with more detail? I don't understand, is there a project on how to do it?

Hold on I'm trying to make a picture for it…

Okay, I can't figure out how to post picture in Forums. But I'll try to break it down as simple as possible, so you know what a variable is. Right?

Stop reading now if you don't know.

Okay if you are still reading then you know what a variable is. If you go to the variable section of the block menu then it will show all the variables in the project, pick the one you want to make a slider out of and click the little box next to it so there is a blue check mark (unless there is already a blue check mark) Then on screen an orange box with the name of the variable next to it should appear, right-click it and select “slider” from the drop down menu. Then it will turn into a slider, you can click and drag it anywhere on the stage depending where you want it to be.

Does that make sense? Sorry if it sounds like I'm being condescending. I'm not.

Well what do you want to change? Color? Size? Costume? The Options are almost infinite!

assuming you have a slider variable named “color”…
