Costume pallet doesn't hold position

The costume pallet jumps to the beginning of the list every time you modify a costume. It makes it very slow going to tweak multiple costumes little by little, mostly while animating, because every time you change one costume, you have to go scrolling back down to hunt for the next one.

To reproduce:

1. Scroll down to a certain costume and select it.



2. Make a small change to the costume in the editor. Even changing the name causes this to happen.

3. All of sudden the pallet is back to the top.



This seems like a little thing, but it gets very frustrating quick when you are trying to animate costumes precisely.

Costume pallet doesn't hold position

Beautiful drawings!

The palette resetting—whether in costumes, scripts, or sounds—is frustrating.

Also, do not like when you duplicate a costume or sound it goes to the bottom.

Then you (often) have to scroll all the way down and go through the cumbersome task of moving the costume back up next to the original.

@TimothyLawyer Thank you!

And yes, anything which jumps around unexpectedly on you while you're working is really annoying. It can make things take much longer than they should.

Costume pallet doesn't hold position

Wow… now, when you switch from one costume to another, it resets the zoom. So if you are at 100% (which should be the default) and then switch costumes, it will set the zoom back to the illogical default of “zoomed in close”. I don't even know if it's worth posting this officially. I have seen a single reply from the team on any of previous reports.
