This looks to be because the newly spawned socket in the JOIN block is slow to wake up and highlight itself in yellow as the available docking target.

When that yellow indicator does not appear, the moving block gets dropped behind the JOIN somewhere.

My attempts:
sample run

Oke but it doesn't drop behind. It is gone...

I'll try again

I've tried it again. I find it unstable. Sometimes the yellow indicator doesn't show up. Sometimes the place stays open and then I can glue an item.
It looks to me to sophisticated until now

Does Ai2 test server also has this feature annotated in the screenshot? i want to test aar support in extensions if it's in the test server.

Unfortunately, this pull request has been hanging around for a long time. I hope it gets merged soon, as it is currently a highly requested feature.

29

Yes, it is on the test server.

Assets from the aar libraries are not included in the final apk. Can anyone please confirm this behaviour for aar extension feature on test server.

31

I have a question regarding nested assets. During build process will build server ignore them or include them in the final apk under assets in their original nested form? I am esting on test server. In my test, they are not included in the apk. They are showing in assets of appinventor designer section but not in the final apk.

What extension are you using to test this?

33

I am using Markwon library for Markdown and LaTeX rendering function in my extension. Below attached is my extension. If needed i am happy to share the source code. I am using Fast CLI for extension building as Extension Template has not been updated for a long time.

The test server has been updated with the following changes:

  • Implement a new color choice picker and project colors (@iamwsumit)
  • Fix edge-to-edge appearance on Android 15 cause status bar to be white text on white background (it will use the project's PrimaryColor instead)
  • Fix Google Voice permissions always added when Texting component in use (even if UseGoogleVoice was false)
  • Fix an issue where the project list was sorted incorrect order
  • Fix error counts in block workspace
  • Refactor the editor hierarchy (internal change to support more editors like Alexa)
  • Last opened screen will be opened with project rather than defaulting to Screen1
  • Enable iOS build support under a "beta" label

Don't quote me on it but either nb199 or nb200. You should be able to use the key bindings on the production server as well.
