Tile for "after x seconds do"
by Bert Freudenberg 03 Oct '10

03 Oct '10

One of the most requested features in Etoys is the ability to "wait" in a script. While a wait tile is almost impossible to implement properly with the current Etoys design, adding a tile that schedules another script after a certain delay should be comparatively simple. In fact, the existing "do script" tile actually does that, it schedules the named script for execution after a 1 ms delay. What needs to be done would be to add a tile with a numeric type-in similarly to the first color swatch in the "color sees" tile. This is not actually an argument tile (Etoys tiles can only have at most one argument) but just a modifier to the tile itself. While not exactly trivial, this should not be too hard to implement either. There is no precedent except the color-sees tile. Follow senders of color:sees: for the special-casing needed ... I entered this as feature idea at http://tracker.squeakland.org/browse/SQ-848 If anyone would like to have this, vote for it on the tracker. And if anyone wants to implement it, go ahead ;) - Bert -

The keyboardInterpreter for Japanese locale decodes a stream of UTF-8 bytes into a Character 'char' but keyValue passed to event generator is 'char asciiValue'. This doesn't seem to be right. But I try to pass char directly, I get a failure in keyString which tries to print keyValue using String. Is it necessary that keyValue be ASCII all the time? Subbu
