When Clicked block

yoshifan509

Is is possible to add this block:

when clicked {say [hi]}

// this could work too:

when [sprite1 v] clicked
// or
if [sprite1 v] clicked then {do something}

I know this exists:

forever
if <mouse down?> then
say [i've been clicked! :D]
end

end

But I just want the block(s) above.

What would the top blocks do?

Actually, I don't need the top 3 blocks, but the fourth one I'll keep.

when this sprite clicked

if <touching [mouse-pointer v]?> then
if <mouse down?> then

end
end

It is a one block “workaround”

I don't think I fully understand what you're suggesting but if I'm correct you want this:

when clicked {say [Hello!]} :: control

But I don't think you know how that would work. You see, you think that this that is the same as this workaround:

forever
if <<touching [mouse pointer v] ?> and <mouse down?>> then
say [Hello!]
end
end

But its actually the same as:

if <<touching [mouse pointer v] ?> and <mouse down?>> then
say [Hello!]
end

Without the forever loop. Also, how do you explain, ‘when clicked’? It's already in a script, so would that make the script, then how will you explain stuff like this:

when green flag clicked
wait (10) secs
when clicked {say [Hello!]} :: control

What if you click on the sprite before 10 seconds happen? Would it skip the entire script just for that? A more proper block I believe are these:

<being pressed? :: sensing>

or

if clicked then {} :: control

And besides, we already have this:

when this sprite clicked

Already exists.

no support, there is already a workaround

Saying there is a workaround annoys me. Many users are annoyed with it because it's nothing bad even if there is a simple workaround. You could just simply say a block related to this has already existed. They are technically not workarounds because they are the same block with the same function.

No Support. We already have the blocks:

when this sprite clicked // this one

if <<mouse down?> and <touching [mouse pointer v]?>> then // and this one
...
end

I'm pretty sure the first suggestion is already here:

when this sprite clicked

Botcho_Otkho

No support,easy workaround:

<mouse down?> and <touching [Sprite1 v]?>
