Cool! Nice updates! could you make it so when you shift-click the set costume center it makes it the exact center? That would be very helpful.

Oh, it doesn't make it the exact center now when you just normal click? Can you explain how it is off (and a link to an example might help too.) Thanks!

HEY!!! You can't put Vector and Bitmap in a costume together!

I wanted to have Bitmap act as just another layer!

Thanks for the ride, Scratch Team and community! Unfortunately, the time has come for me to move on from Scratch, so I'll no longer be using the forums. Thanks again, and farewell!

Whoo! I would like it if it was more like the 1.4 editor, but thanks anyway!

This account quit, but I'm still active on my other account, SilverEagle.

Hey! Are you not sure what you shouldn't be doing on Scratch? Reread the Community Guidelines, they'll help.

Yeah… but it would be “confusing to young scratchers”.

Community-driven innovation, that's my vision.
That's why I have a passion for Scratch.
Follow the Dream, SCRATCH ON!

I agree. Although you can mix vectors with a single bitmap object. This is the same as importing a bitmap. In ether case there is no way to edit the bitmap once you've moved on to the vector portion of costume creation. In short there is nothing added here I could not do with an external editor and a screen capture. (And I was hoping for multiple bitmaps in a single costume. Ha!)

Scratch is such an amazing product, I wish more adults would take interest. Of course I understand the primary goal is to make learning fun for young people. Over all 2.0 is a huge improvement. Plus, it seems ungrateful to complain when all this is offered free of charge. Thank you MIT.

EDIT: Not you, Failord. I'm trying to control my own complaining.

Sorry if I sounded ungrateful. I'm really happy they finally added it. I'd just like one that acts like the old one. _meow_

It would be nice if you could make it the exact center instead of estimating where it is.

I think by “exact center” you mean the computed center - half way between the left and right image bounds and the upper and lower image bounds? That would be a very nice feature!

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.
