Just some visual clue so I don't always have to open the properties dialog and click on the triangle near “Options” to check it is properly set or unset.

Whether a block is with or without screen refresh is not just a cosmetic thing:
First of all it is a performance thing. Also, it allows me to change a couple of global variables in a row with low risk of some other sprite seeing some half-baked state.
Otoh, having a block with disabled screen refresh try to let a sprite “glide to …”, will likely not work out for the best.
When viewing other people's code it would be fine if I immediately saw which blocks are with or without screen refresh.

As for how to signal it: perhaps add some small icon in the header, or draw the block-outline inside the header a bit thicker or add an asterisk right after the “define” word…

PS: naming blocks appropriately is not a substitute for this feature. Well, maybe for one's own code, but not for examining other scratchers' code.

Support! Sounds like it would be pretty easy to implement as well..

Again, there's no reason to not support this.

You mean just having some sort of symbol on the block like this? http://prntscr.com/6wfvrd

If so, this is a duplicate.

Not just “having some symbol” there, but have that symbol there exactly when the check-mark for “run without screen refresh” is set.

I searched for a couple of specific words before I posted this topic. If there was a previous discussion on a similar topic, then I missed it.
Please point me/us to it by posting the URL (of the discussion itself, not just some image).


BTW., as I'm still a “New Scratcher” I cannot yet update the first-post to include statistics about supporters. I'll do so as soon as I'm promoted to “Scratcher”

Here is the duplicate.

Yup, that's the one I was talking bout.

Why not upgrade this to make it so the little flag or icon can be clicked to toggle refresh right then and there?

Support.

…

when green flag clicked
wait (21) secs
