play sound [ v] from ()::sound //Give a number as time to begin playing
play sound [ v] from () until done::sound

On current version of scratch, We always have to play sounds from start of them.
But some people (include me) want those blocks to play sounds from given time.

Here is a usage. This is a simple music player:

when green flag clicked
set [current time v] to [0]
when [space v] key pressed
reset timer
play sound [music v] from (current time)::sound
wait until <not <key [space v] pressed?>>
wait until <key [space v] pressed?>
set [current time v] to ((current time) + (timer))

I think I'm not good at English so if you find wrong point in my English, let me know.

Support, these are awesone! However maybe make the current time block specific to a certain sound, since multiple sounds can be playing at once.

current time in sound [sound v]::sound reporter

Thank you for replying!!
Other people, how do you think about my suggestion?

I support! This would make it easier for people who often import music for specific parts. As a result we have to find the part and edit the sound. This would make it easier for us because then people dont have to do edit sound as often.

There is a simple workaround:

when green flag clicked
wait () secs
play sound [ v] until done

But lets say you want to use the theme song for your game in the main menu, but only a piece of it. Do you really want to wait ? seconds in order to do that?

Bump
I want more other opinion .

You have to wait 24 hours before you can close a topic (to prevent spam).
However, I've already reported this topic to be closed, so if you're lucky, a Scratch Team member will close it for you.

I forgot that I have to wait.
And thank you for reporting.
