GP Beta Test Forum

The boolean switches have been inherited from Snap but due to the fact that colours in GP are very muted compared to Snap/Scratch they do look very indistinct I personally would like to keep to "standard" black arrow dropdown with the words true/false I was never a fan of them when they were introdu...

:-) There's been a lot of suggestions made in past 6 months - obviously a lot by me :) When are the changes a coming? :) In all seriousness, GP has got some show-stopping bugs (certainly on Windows) that makes it unsuitable to actually use for real in a classroom without a lot of TLC And the GUI int...
