i.type = "file"

let fr = new FileReader()
//etc

@helicoptur

var lnk = document.createElement('a');
lnk.href = (URL||webkitURL).createObjectURL(new Blob([contents])); // assuming contents is a var with the contents
lnk.download = 'test.jpg'; // name + . + extension
lnk.click()

@pumpkinhead

data

You need to define a variable or function parameter called data and assign to it the data you want to send.

@helicoptur

contents

Same thing (

@helicoptur

assuming contents is a var with the contents

)

Only a subset of HTML can be used on the forum (i.e. iframe for Snap! projects and text-formatting ones like p, h1-h6, b, i, strike, em, etc. [maybe more?])

[coder2195snap]

You have to use filereader functions
The reason I didn’t provide them is because you can read the files in multiple formats
As txt, as data url, etc
And use .result to see the result

Replace https://www.example.com/ with an actual website!

You can change were it ends .html to .txt this is from my game HTML Runner: Snap! 6.8.1 Build Your Own Blocks (berkeley.edu)

This will help you:

To view the blocks and see the code of the selected blocks, please follow this URL:

[joecooldoo]

Er, there in a different language. It would be awesome if you translated it. :~)

[alessandrito123]

Ok, but please read this post of me and why: My first and the best project I made for Snap!

[joecooldoo]

This doesn't explain anything to me. Could you be a bit more descriptive?

[helicoptur]

Could you please translate the blocks into english?

[alessandrito123]

Probably, but the experimental translations button is inestable for me , please check this post:
https://forum.snap.berkeley.edu/t/my-first-and-the-best-project-i-made-for-snap/6887/17

My first and the best project I made for Snap!

Yes, the translations are inestable and buggy, and one of my the select arguments of the translated version of my new list block go to change the appearance like this: [untitled script pic] But the capture of the original block is: [Captura de Pantalla 2021-06-02 a la(s) 18.20.37]

My first and the best project I made for Snap!

Oh I see. When I try that (translating a block with a variadic input) it doesn't forget the input values I used. So I'd still like to see an xml that fails when translated to English! Thanks.

My first and the best project I made for Snap!

Ok, @bh I have to do an capture of the blocks to show you. Please repair the .xml's errors in the next version.

@alessandrito123

Probably

Just use translate.google.com

@My first and the best project I made for Snap!

switching language removes variadic inputs (basically what was said I think)

Yes, but the user will only need to switch language once in their entire time on Snap! and a cookie is made to remember language preference.

Here is a translation: Snap! 6.8.1 Build Your Own Blocks
(I did about 2/3 of it myself. The other 1/3 I used Google Translate.)

[alessandrito123]

Wow, your project is awesome, thanks for translating my blocks.
