Introducing my latest :snap: mod:

split_logo_sm

As the motto implies, this is a mod that’s meant to look like Scratch. The UI needs some work; but the blocks look great!

this is insane and i love it

3

This is a very good effort of you, our best dream is
finally reaching the reality with your contribution. :smiley:

4

Very good effort :slight_smile:

5

Wow, what an amazing hack!

6

Nice. Could you also make a version where you can choose the high contrast colors from scratch?

7

this is so cursed, but I love it.

8

How come the blocks above WARP in the Control palette are a different color from the ones below it (except for SWITCH TO SCENE)?

9

Oh, that. It’s me merging Scratch’s Events and Control categories; each with different colors. You still can’t select the events category when making custom blocks, though. I’ll get :tuit: soon.

(ninja’d)

10

They’re to mimic how scratch puts those blocks in a different category.

11

Do you guys really like this bulky, washed-out style instead of “zoom blocks” to 1.4, if necessary?

Or is it just appreciation of the effort?

12

I’m fine with Snap! 's block style. I’m fine with Scratch’s block style.
I’m fine with it all.

I just made this for fun and because I’ve seen multiple forum topics along the lines of “Make Snap! look like Scratch!”

I’ve also thought about how several Snap features would look like in 3.0; like rings and input lists.

13

It’s both appreciation of effort and outcome.

Scratchers coming to Snap! generally don’t like the “old” style Scratch 1.4 look of Snap! as they are used to Scratch 3 appearance.

If the visual block changes could be incorporated into Snap! (as an optional skin) then it would be a big win for block programming progression

these aren’t lined up

Well said :slight_smile:

16

Oh, thanks. I’ll fix that in the next patch update.

Also, I’m having some issues with SymbolMorphs rendering images on Retina displays:

I can’t seem to get the right ratio for displaying images on all pixel densities.

Right, I forgot to ask about this… the stop button is solid black on my display.

18

Like this?

That’s because it’s drawing the top left corner, which is blank. I still can’t get that aspect ratio though :~(

19

I was going to do that; but I can’t remember why I didn’t

Thanks for the very kind words. I hope my mod can somewhat bridge the gap between Scratch and Snap!
