For “previous costume” block you could do:

switch costume to ((costume #) - (1))

if <[Pen down] = [True]> then
put whatever blocks you want here

can be done by:

pen down
set [Pen down?] to [True]

And

pen up
set [Pen down?] to [False]

This doesn't work, since the sprite will also think that they are a clone.
the variable must be set to this spirite only
WHO IS SPIRITE
sprite, a character
isn't it called spirite?
s p r i t e c r a n b e r r y isnt sprite a d r i n k -
1. it is called SPRITE not SPIRITE
2. sprite is also a drink but not in this case.
3. anyone have a workaround for
when gf clicked
? (just asking for fun)

ViniBloxEr would like this…

Well you could always do
when [timer v] > (0)
in scratch 3.0 you can just do when motion greater than -9999 turn camera off

oh I forgot

Moving from Scratch? Don't learn C or Java, try Snap!

This can be used for other single character special keys, such as ; ‘ , \ as well as enter.
But it doesn’t work with the shift, control, tab, etc. keys.
is there a full list of those?

i can't find one so i'll make one myself

Here is a workout for this block:

stop saying [ hello]

Use of this block:

forever
if <touching [mouse pointer v] ?> then 
say [hello]
 

else
 stop saying [ hello]
end
end

Workout:

forever
if <touching [mouse pointer v] ?> then 
say [hello] for (0.01) secs

end
end

An alternate way is:

when green flag clicked
forever
if <touching [ mouse-pointer] ?> then 
say [hello]

  

else
think []
end
end

This can be done by just putting say() blank input and it will say nothing. i tested it

Also, for Javascript programmers like me, to make localStorage variables, you can do this:

set [ v] to []

NOT a cloud variable.

This isn't a localStorage variable because it's reset when you reload the page.

This is not a workaround but have you ever been through the awful time where you have to copy scripts to every single sprite?
Here is a tip:
Go to the hat block at the top of the script and right-click it

 when green flag clicked

After that press Ctrl+C to copy the script
Then, go to the sprite you need and press Ctrl+V to paste the script

when green flag clicked
broadcast [Green Flag]

when I receive [Green Flag]
