There are different forms of tiles, which makes it even a little more 
confusing.
All the tiles that describe actions, e.g., turn by, forward, create a 
script when dropped. Others, which only make sense in a certain context 
*in* a script do not.
Examples for these are tests ("color sees", isUnderMouse) which need a 
test tile to be dropped into and instance variables like "Sketch's x", 
which belong into a value field (as in an assigment or other expression) 
inside a script.
