bump + support

I knew this feature used to exist! I knew that wasn't just my imagination!!
Anyways, it might be a little time-consuming to remake, but I definitely support this; it would make it a lot easier for people using Scratch.

Yeah, when I found out they removed this and some other stuff, I was super annoyed. There are so many people now that just don't know some blocks like “mod” or what “switch backdrop to and wait” does, or differences between existing blocks.

Should this be merged with this? https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/discuss/topic/342227

Well, there’s a way to still access it, but you either need 2.0 or earlier or go to a cdn ver now.
And I could help you, which ones do you need?

Yes I know. That’s why I was asking if it should be merged.
Edit: It did.

There are 2 problems with the list:

1. That gives a brief explanation of every block (excluding extensions) and some scratchers might still not know how to use the harder blocks
2. If it’s an extensions block they don’t know, then the page doesn’t work for them

Well, what do you mean by “if it's an extensions block they don't know”. And you can go to individual pages. Though yeah not all users know about the wiki.

Remember when there used to be a “help” button if you right-clicked a block?

Can we bring that back? It was super helpful!!

Also, we should be able to right-click broadcasts and find “the senders” and the “receivers” and all of that.

support it would be great and we could add the comment block which was in the official list of rejected suggestions because it would be confusing

Please don't quote the original post.

Support again, I’ve seen people not know stuff like clones receiving broadcasts, how the switch backdrop and wait differs, etc (and a lot of it was stuff that the Tips Window already stated), so it could really clear confusion up.

1.That was replaced with the current comment thing, so no.
2. This isn’t related at all to this topic.
3. You have to explain an actual reason why you support, instead of “it would be great”.

Support since kids can learn about those blocks those things they can code and it can help them be better at using scratch! It can be great for schools to show them these guides in order to teach them basic coding.
