Cross reference of variables and lists?

What's problem you are encountering?

My project is becoming quite large - that is - relatively speaking; it is becoming one of the longest I have ever concocted.

At a certain point I have started to rewrite my project - since I had fumbled with the .xml files (see other post) - but I have somewhere screwed up a list I am using.

It would be really handy if I could find a way to create some cross-reference-overview as to where my list is being influenced.

What have you tried that didn't work?

I resorted to creating a project summary and scrolling through it. There is soooo much information in this summary and I cannot look for some text, since it is all image. There is especially too much information I do not need.

Sample project

It is here and the list I have screwed up is rowList

There is another correct working example that however probably suffers from my .xml brua

I have been looking for hours now so I need to take a break

Thx in advance for your help/advice/scrutiny/comments and what not :slight_smile:

I'm out at moment but I have made a block that will search thru a project and will let you know where it finds things

I’ll give you a link when back at computer tomorrow morning (UK time zone)

I tried my search block on your project but it fails to find rowList inside of your custom blocks as it doesn’t have that facility - sorry :frowning:


If you would like/need an explanation on how this works, I'd be happy to provide one!

PS: The script pic shows running this in the stage. There may be more blocks that are local to the sprite(s). To find these, call the above script in the sprite of your choice.

I’ve come up with this which I think gets all the custom blocks in your puzzleBlocks category that contain rowList

[edit2 15Sep2025] This version can be run from any sprite

Marvelous! I just was not aware that all of this stuff was available without extra coding.

Especially the simplicity - therein lies the beauty.
