Common Block Operations
The six block types (control group, control, condition group, action group, condition, and action) share the same methods for adding, moving, editing, duplicating, and deleting. Each block section below describes only what is specific to that block.
Add
- When a logic has no blocks, the + Add button appears in the upper right. Select Control or Control Group there. The button is not shown once the logic contains a block.
- When a control's condition area or action area, or the inside of a control group, condition group, or action group is empty, an Add Condition, Add Action, or Add button appears in that place. Select the kind of block to insert there.
- Where blocks already exist, hovering over a block shows a + button above and below it. It adds a block of a kind allowed in that area at that position.
When a copied or cut block is on the clipboard, the add menus also show a Paste item.
Move
Click and drag a block to the desired position. A block can only be moved within the places where its kind may be placed.
| Block | Allowed places |
|---|---|
| Control group | Directly under the logic |
| Control | Directly under the logic, inside a control group, or inside an action area |
| Condition, condition group | Inside a condition area |
| Action, action group | Inside an action area |
Edit
Right-click a block and select Edit, or double-click the block, to open its edit dialog. The right-click menu has five items: Edit, Duplicate, Copy, Cut, and Delete.
Duplicate
Duplicate in the right-click menu copies the block together with all blocks it contains. The duplicate is created directly below the original, and its name is the original name followed by Copy (a number is added when that name already exists).
Copy, Cut, and Paste
Copy and Cut place the block on the clipboard. Paste it with the Paste item in an add menu or with the shortcuts of block selection mode, into the same logic or a different one.
Delete
Delete a block with Delete in the right-click menu. Deleting a control group, control, condition group, or action group also deletes every block it contains.
Mobile Screens
On mobile screens up to 768 pixels wide, logic is view-only. The add buttons, the + buttons above and below blocks, the right-click menu, double-click editing, and drag-and-drop are all disabled, so edit blocks on a desktop screen.
