Is there a way to get the extension to not block so much of the Workspace when using the Find function? More often than not on my laptop the extension popup blocks what I just found.

Either break out the Find function to a separate extension, or add menu branches so the Find feature extends horizontally instead of vertically?

Tested it with Brave Version 1.35.103 Chromium: 98.0.4758.102 (Official Build) (64-bit) and Linux Mint.
Working great. Nice job. Very useful.

Sorry, I don't fully understand you. Can you explain more?

I was hoping to avoid overlap onto my blocks view after a FIND operation.
In retrospect, it's not that bad, considering how the found block is well centered.

I feel I am asking too much, gilding the lily.

In recompense, I offer this old joke as an anti-award for myself:

A grandmother and her beloved grandson are at the beach. They’re playing near the shore. Suddenly a giant wave comes and sweeps the boy out to sea. The grandmother is beside herself with grief. She drops to her knees. She’s weeping and sobbing and implores God to return her little one. Lo and behold, another giant wave comes and deposits him back on the shore, unharmed. The grandmother embraces him and, overwhelmed with gratitude, thanks God over and over and over. Then she pauses, looks up and says to God, “But where’s his little hat?”

In some cases, there will be a 'Reload' link, you can also use that :slight_smile:

Only if you unzip it to the original folder as first install.

Yes. Otherwise it won't work. Because it always looks in the same extension directories! (with the same names as well! )

I have got a request. Can you make it so that it also saves SVG files?

I tried an chrome extension that saves Scratch blocks

and it saves App Inventor blocks too as svg but they don't look ok. :crazy_face:

Ok, i will check and revert.

This is the github page. It seems this is a newer version.

@Peter So you want a function in Chrome extension which will download workspace as a svg image, am I right?

I want to download individual blocks or all blocks as svg yes.

When fetching a zip of all blocks, my spinner.AfterSelecting block (a big long block) is missing from the zip. If I download blocks as separate images it is there as an image file (1.6mb). Size thing or block type thing ?

Would you pls pm the aia for me to test? @TIMAI2
