5.0.1
by Bert Freudenberg 09 Aug '12

09 Aug '12

Last week I announced a release candidate for 5.0.1: http://lists.squeakland.org/pipermail/squeakland/2012-June/006463.html Perhaps that mail was too buried in the squeakland thread? I got no feedback at all, nobody reported on their testing of either 5.0.1 nor the new OLPC OS. Today I uploaded another release candidate incorporating the latest changes: http://etoys.squeak.org/download/ Please test. Here's the list of changes since 5.0 (straight from the NEWS file): 5.0.2408 (1 July 2012) * 5.0.1 RC2 * Added translation: en_GB * Updated translation: da, de, bn, hy, hus, zh_CN * Move ScratchClient to 'Tools' category * Revert addition of graph-location watcher items to Morph's extras menu. The viewer is a better way to get watchers. 5.0.2407 (25 June 2012) * 5.0.1 RC1 * Added translation: hus * Update translations: da, de, es, nl, pt, sv, zh * Sugar: fix choosing objects from external media instead of Journal, and handle non-ASCII filenames * Etoys-To-Go: added Linux VM for ARM processors * make saved projects that do not use new features more likely to work in earlier versions of Etoys (SQ-1095) * adds a preference, 'singlePixelNib', so the smallest brush will draw with a one-pixel-wide nib (SQ-1004) * fix dropping a GIF image into Etoys (SQ-1094) * mark month names and weekday names for translation (SQ-1102) * some ScratchConnect fixes from Koji Yokokawa (SQ-1085, SQ-1086, SQ-1087) * better comment in POT for translators about the meta-phrases 'Language-Name' and 'Language-Direction' * minor fixes (SQ-811, SQ-869, SQ-1036, SQ-1045, SQ-1051, SQ-1088, SQ-1096, SQ-1099) - Bert -

Bert, I am glad Nebraska is back. Kids will like it a lot. BTW, I have been adding MP3 music to projects. That is another media authoring tool students will enjoy and drag and drop is so easy to explain.

When I set a text's numeric value, I would like to include the thousands separator to make it easier to compare two numbers. Thanks, Stephen

There is a long list of options from menus found in other places.

It does not work when the draw script is ticking but rather acts like the list below. It also works when the tile is in a script set to run MouseDown. I think the problems arise when the draw script is ticking, but I don't know how to warn a beginner to avoid that. > > I was trying to emulate an App for the iPad called FlightCrtl HD and last year before the iPad was updated I used the dev permission you provided to try the Etoys version on the iPad.

draw a path follow a path
by Harness, Kathleen 15 Jul '12

15 Jul '12

Good Morning, The draw a path tile is not working properly. It will not always draw a path; sometimes it will and sometimes it will not It will sometimes draw part of a path after the draw path script has been paused It will sometimes draw a path and add a message that no path was drawn, yet the path is available It will sometimes freeze the draw script while it is ticking It seems to work better when the draw path script is set to mouse down This worked well in the previous version. Regards, Kathleen
