Issue #195 resolved
Ramon Moorlag created an issue

the introduction of the library is needed at buttons, it’s now later (at scrolling text).

The LED display is in a library. Page 2

    What board are you using?

    The “LED Display” library, which is used on the Buttons page, should load automatically by default when you plug in a micro:bit. That library should also load automatically when you create a new project when a micro:bit is connected.

    It is possible to disable automatic library loading using a menu command when you are in “show advanced blocks” mode, so if libraries are not loading for you that could be the reason.

    However, the default when MicroBlocks is first installed is to autoload libraries, so beginners should not need to manually load the “LED Display” library when they are just getting started. The idea is to introduce libraries slightly later in the sequence (for scrolling text).

    Does that make sense?
