You have to replace the brackets with parentheses - that’s the only way.

TIPS AND COOL THINGS YOU CAN DO WHEN MAKING SCRATCHBLOCKS
1. Text inputs use brackets (), while reporters use parenthesis (())
Example:
Using brackets:

foo [bar] ::looks

Using parenthesis:

foo (bar) ::looks

So if you want to make this:

say (join [foo] [bar])
wait [foo] secs

but it ends up as this:

say [(join [foo] [bar])]
wait (foo) secs

then check whether you're using brackets or parenthesis. It may throw you off especially on long stuff like this:

add (((foo) * ([abs v] of (bar))) + ((bar) * ([abs v] of (foo)))) to [list v]

2. Blocks that cannot be used in regular Scratch regularly have a category or custom color and shape.
Do this:

when clone is deleted ::events hat

not this:

when clone is deleted

3. Hey, remember when you could put entire blocks into code in Snap!? Well, that's possible here too!

foo {bar ::operators} ::looks

Unfortunately, this doesn't support entire scripts…
Infact, there's 2 more things in Snap! that you could do with Scratchblocks!
Rings:

({foo bar}@addInput::ring

and more symbols, along with the original 4 (plus the stop sign):

@greenFlag@stopSign@delInput@addInput@loopArrow@turnLeft@turnRight@list ::control //All the symbols

4. Here's the … block:

That's all! If you have other tips feel free to reply (quote) to this!

Adding a “(” at the beginning of a reporter block gives it a red highlight.
((variable)
gives you
((variable)
This isn't intentional, and it can also break stuff (the double brackets in backdrop block are an oversight)
think ((backdrop [number v]::looks) for (2) secs

This is caused by the bracket “()” not being closed.

think ((backdrop [number v]::looks)) for (2) secs

You can edit the color

((variable)::looks)

and it gives you this:

((variable)::looks)

Hope that helps!

Merry Christmas!::cat looks
And a happy new year!::cap custom

Hey this discuss create to Scratch, not to JS (JavaScript). JavaScript is programming language.
