The clear counter block was a stack block and an experimental block. It set the value of the counter to 0, which could be reported by the Counter block and increment with the Incr Counter block. Like most experimental counter blocks, it was a hidden block, meaning it could not be accessed via the block palette.
This block is still present in Scratch 3.0 as a hidden block, and its functionality was kept intact. Additionally, the block was moved to the Control category.
Workaround
- Main article: List of Block Workarounds
This block's functionality can be simulated with a single set () to () block:
set [counter v] to [0]
The workaround should be used in conjunction with these two workarounds for the Counter and Incr Counter blocks:
(counter) // Counter workaround change [counter v] by (0) // Incr Counter workaround
