Custom Tab

Trello Board Link: https://trello.com/c/VFDmc98T/93-custom-tab

The worst part about having a lot of blocks is *finding* the block you want.

Sure you have the hotbar, but when you do art, you use more than ten colors! Or if you try to change worlds, leave, or refresh, you have to redo your hotbar!

My suggestion  is easy. Have a "custom" tab where you can organize and order the blocks however you want. You would click and drag them to that tab, jsut as you do to the hotbar, find a place where you want the block to go, then place it there.

Ideally you would be able to change the names of the rows in the custom tab, but that is negotiable.

It would need a save function or it'd be moot. The save function would allow you to log out or move from world to world and keep the same blocks there.

Re: Custom Tab

yes
this MUST be added
but how can we drag the blocks from the other tabs to the custom tab without having to release the mouse to click the Custom tab?

Works like when you move a browser tab from one window to another?

I just assumed this.

I'm not sure how programming works, but if it is too difficult there are alternatives. You could just drag and drop onto the tab itself, then it would go to a random place, then you could reorder it later.

Re: Custom Tab

If this is going to be added, I suggest making buttons with names that if you click, it pops-up a message showing clickable blocks.

Okay, perhaps I am misreading this, but I'm going to need you to reword this since I am not sure what you mean.

Something like this:
Don't complain about my images, I'm bad at photoshop

The buttons will show like this:

Then it pops something like this:

Re: Custom Tab

Ah, I get it Creature.

I like that idea a lot, but if it makes it too complicated for the devs to do, then I'd understand them not putting it into the game.

Re: Custom Tab

Even better if I just have 1 custom bar set up, there won't be all that empty space taken up by the menu so I can have it open without blocking most of my screen

if you put a brick on row without name, a name selection will appear. give a image?

Re: Custom Tab

Bob, I agree as well, but usually adding a feature similar to another feature is easier for the devs to do than reconfiguring something else.

Re: Custom Tab

Nah, I suggest making it so it pops up on top and you can open brick tabs in the part below to drag to the custom thing, like:

And if someone manages to add a brick that he/she doesn't own (like in the second custom bricks), the button will either do nothing and get greyed or just disappear.
Oh wait, also, unchecking the block tabs will put the custom tab on bottom, but checking a tab will make it go back there

Re: Custom Tab

I don't know. But if someone manages to add a block he/she only has during builders club then after it expires,the save button for that custom thing will be locked until brick isnt bought, or simply removed (clicking the brick, holding for 3 seconds and a menu should popup asking to delete or keep)

Re: Custom Tab

I would suggest 2 buttons that are in the custom tab: Add/Remove and Edit. When you click add/remove it would bring up a menu so that can type in a name it will add a group with that name. If you type in a name that's already been added it will remove it. Edit would bring up a menu where there would also an add/remove button and 2 text boxes: one for the name of the group and one for the I'd. You would type in a ID and the group you want it to be in then you press add/remove to add it to the group in the custom tab. So probably non-beta would have 1 or 2 groups. Beta would have like 5 and Builders club would have like 10 or something. That's first thing that came to my head. Oh and also there would be a save to world button and save to global button. Save to world would make it so that you have a custom thing only for that world while global would be saved for all worlds except the ones that you saved to the worlds. There also could be a switch to global which would delete the save for that world and show a prompt saying: "Are you sure? You can't undo this!" Or something like that.

Wow long reply

Re: Custom Tab

Yep. Just forgot the Add/Remove buttons. Should be located after the save button. And next should be settings button, letting you change title.

Re: Custom Tab

If this were added, I probably wouldn't use the other tabs ever again. I mainly use a small variety of blocks. Full support!

Re: Custom Tab

like it, but instead of the custom tab taking up that much space on screen at all times, it should function like the other tabs unless you tap a edit button located somewhere on the tab, then it would act like your graphic(pic). just add a done button instead of a save button next to each line. (done will either ask to be saved, or will just auto save when clicked.

Re: Custom Tab

Bumping, this seriously needs to be added. And hopefully it will be seen again.

Someone should give us an idea if this is already being made.
