Swipe Boolean, a way to detect how the mouse is moving

I_wantasheep

I suggest block that detect what you “draw”

<swiped [up v]?::sensing> //can contain up, down, left, right, spiral, star, and many other basic shapes
<swiped ()?::sensing> //you can draw inside reporter (might be too complex to add this one lol)
when () swiped :: events hat // maybe even a hat block too

Mockup: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1311654500

please note that you have to hold left click for it to work on pc

Ah okay. This is a great suggestion. I'm assuming workaround as of now would be tracking the change of y and x position. Is that reliable?

I don’t think it has the same decaying effect because of that support
