Walldorf

Named "Walldorf" to honor SAP's sponsorship Snap’s first update in 2017 concludes a series of improvements and enhancements to the user interface. While previous releases in 2016 focused on data and its visualization (tables, linked lists and first-class sprites) v4.0.10 revisits how you work with blocks, adding such long sought-after features as UNDO/REDO, auto-wrapping (inside-out nesting of control structures), entering formulas using the keyboard, refactoring variables (renaming all accessors in scope), browsing and previewing libraries, supporting hierarchical drop-down menus for input slots and extending the typography for block labels. In addition, this release also improves the UI for working with resources (pictures, SVGs, sounds) and projects.

Detailed description of new features:

Upland

(named after Upland, IN where those features were first demonstrated at CCSW:2016)

New Visible Stepping Feature adds slider for controlling slowed down visible execution, where blocks and input slots highlight as they are evaluated. At the slowest setting the execution pauses after every step, so the user can click on the new "next step" button and thus manually single-step program execution:

Speed-up execution of non-warped custom command blocks by factor 2 (by making sure they evaluate in a single frame and not over two frames as they used to)
Many improvements to text-editing contributed by Bernat Romagosa (@bromagosa).
