Allow Google Drawings

MelonManatee

Hi, I have been trying to upload my picture from Google Drawings into the Scratch Editor, but it did not allow me to. My computer is a Chromebook and it does not allow me (well I can't find any buttons that allow me to) convert into a .jpeg or .png file.

It's annoying because the only other way (that I can find) is to log onto another computer which takes time to start up and convert the files there.

It's quite a hassle and I would like it if Scratch allowed the uploading of Google Drawings.

Please.

I don't use a Chromebook or Google Drawings, but that's weird… Almost any paint/picture editor should allow you to save as either a JPEG or PNG, considering how commonly used those file types are…

What file types does it let you save as?

Actually, I'm using a Chromebook and I can import pictures from Google Drawings just fine (well, there are some bugs when importing it over to Scratch, but it works). I don't see any way to save as .gdrawing… if you go to File > Download as > .pdf/.svg/.png/.jpeg it'll download it as the selected file. Then you can just import it to Scratch - don't think .pdf works, but the others do. Also, if you do want to convert an image to .png or.jpeg you can find a website that does the conversion for you.
