**Playground example** : [Create Enums from Blocks](https://makecode.com/playground#language-create-enums)

Sample: Creating Enum  
Editor: micro:bit

# On Blocks editor

Place the blocks as follows:

**Member Red (=0) is not selected, but the display will be 0**

# JavaScript editor → Blocks editor

On the JavaScript editor, code as follows:

**When I convert to Blocks, it shows Red instead of Blue and nothing is selected.**

However, since 1 is displayed on the simulator, it appears that Blue (=1) is selected internally.  
It appears that internal values are retained when blocks are copied.

It seems to be a display issue on the block.
