That variable slider was made using a regular slider and a large readout. Variable sliders have not changed.

The contact dot the scratcher is supposed to drag is no longer blue!

It seems to be blue for me. What browser are you using?

If you're reporting bugs, you should create these topics in Bugs and Glitches.

Chrome.

I thought this was an update.

It depends on your device and browser
My browser / operating system: Windows Vista, Firefox 140.0, No Flash versions detected

Chrome might have changed something, but Scratch didn't change anything here

Should I try to find untitled-2 and untitled on this account

they mean in scratch 3. the current version uses an <input> tag so it’s not the same.

that said, i don’t think chrome changed anything at all.

That was on the online editor, and that was the browser lol..
Also I suspected this because I remember others reporting this same thing

The color of your slider is based on your browser's settings. Mine is pink one on device

… So three things could have happened.
One, you switched devices. Two, you changed your settings. Or three, the browser updated.

I think this happens on ChromeOS

I am on macOS 11, and have it looking like this

and I am pretty sure I heard in a topic like this recently that on ChromeOS it uses the “Accent color” or whatever.

I can't see the image properly my school administrator blocks nearly everything related to cube upload.

I also get a Windows Vista slider thing here, as you can see above
My browser / operating system: Windows Vista, Firefox 140.0, No Flash versions detected

According to that image, everything that is supposed to be blue appears white in projects on my device.

Yeah, it's likely a Chrome OS thing.. if this wasn't happening before, then Chrome probably did some update that added that.

(outline because i was selecting with tab)

this is cool ngl. i think scratch is just purplifying more things.

edit: oh, this applies to my entire browser. it happened right after a chrome update so it’s probably that.

This could easily be reverted by using css, but this is really neat and i prefer it like this.

input {
   accent-color:#0075ff;
}

Sadly, I don't have the power to debug my school Chromebook, my school administrator has the best opportunity.

Update: it depends on your chromeobook accent color. You can change it in the wallpaper change menu.

The accent-color attribute applies to sliders, checkboxes, radio buttons and progress bars.
