You can use Holders to handle "lists" in Etoys, Holders can store as many items (of any kind) you like. Then in the viewer look at the collections category.
Stephen FYI, I generally reply to entire list as I find if one person has a question many others do as well.

Thanks for the suggestions. I did not know I could use the "Move" halo.
BTW, I have another question and am wondering if you can help me. It appears that the current version of Etoys does not support a list. Is this correct? If so, is there a way to store multiple items of unknown length?
Thanks in advance.

Young-Jin,
Good question, a scroll bar sounds like a nice enhancement request
(created one here).
Two ways I can think of to deal with this for now: • You should be able to get the Scripts Halo and then use the
"Move" icon to move it up and down, not ideal but it does work.
• Switch code to "show code textually" to get a textrepresentation of the tiles, of course changing things here does not translate back to tiles when you "revert to tile version..." any changes will be lost. If you do make changes be sure to type CMD-S (on Mac) or CTRL-S (on PC or XO).

Hello,
As far as I know, the current version of Etoys (v. 4.1) does not support
a scroll bar in the script box which makes it very difficult to add/edit tiles in the script when it already has many tiles. I am wondering how people deal with this problem. Is there a way to work around this issue?
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
