Yeah, it's taking me much too long to convince Jens that "costume 0" is a costume regardless of how he implemented it.(Due to a misfeature,Not seen that phrase before

Why does the new block for playing sounds take a sample rate rather than a factor to speed the sound up by? Is it better than a constructor (like STRETCH) or a mutator?

Hmm I was hoping Jens would handle this one, since it's his feature. He kind of invents exactly the block he needs for exactly the project he's creating (on the fly in a demo, sometimes). At a guess, he used it to determine by ear what the correct sampling rate was for some imported sound.

Edit: Better than a mutator, not as good as a constructor, of course!

The new Snap website looks nice. It feels slightly more like Scratch now.

Hooray! Are you still considering adding first class colors (which appear as colors and can be given as color inputs)? They could be a type of list so PIXELS OF COSTUME could be changed and existing projects would still work. Okay, it's official, 5.0 is up, the community web site is up! Thanks, Jens; thanks, Bernat; thanks, Michael!

Yes, but not high on the list. We're still working out the arguments about HSL vs. HSV, and I still want crayons in the SET PEN primitive! (My big last-minute project besides trying to keep the manual up to date with last-minute projects was refining the crayon list to include all the block colors.) What Are you still considering adding first class colors (which appear as colors and can be given as color inputs)?is likely in the near future is updating the color picker. Jens is floating the idea that we should have different color pickers in different contexts, and have a choice of pickers like the Photoshop set or the Mac set of pickers. I like Joan's proposed one:
because we agreed on big-ish black and white buttons at the ends of a grayscale gradient, and my 20-crayon subset below that. I still think it should be bigger, though, or zoomable or something.

I just went into Snap! today and found all my projects gone, replaced with some computer save system that I do not store my projects in. At least let Snap! users access their older projects from Snap 4.0. I am mad. Period.

Do I take it that you used the “Browser” save option, rather than the cloud? I'm told that if you hold down the shift key while choosing “Open” from the File menu, you'll get the Browser option. But you should then transfer your projects either to the cloud or to your local disk using the “Computer” option in the save dialog.

One of the reasons why I'm not using Snap for my lessons yet (other than the fact that I didn't test all the projects that I use un the lessons and that my students develop by using Scratch/BYOB) is that when zooming the browser page (both in Chrome and in FireFox) the graphics of the IDE gets blurred. I noticed only today that if, after having zoomed the page, I reload it, the graphics is crisp. As I need to change the zoom level very often during my lessons, reloading the page is not an option as the IDE goes back to the empty IDE.
Is there a way to make the graphics readapt to the zoom level without reloading the page?
