How can I copy script from one Sprite onto another?

In the previous version of Scratch loaded on the computer I could select a group of code blocks on one Sprite and drag them onto another Sprite to copy them. I can't seem to find how to do this in the new online version of the program. I see the duplicate option, but that still only duplicates it in the same Sprite. What am I missing?

You can still drag it; it just doesn't have a graphic like it used to.

You can also drag and drop (cod, sound sprites, …) in the backpack (see at the bottom of the window when you enter the code).
When doing that you can switch to another sprite and re-use that, or even switch to another project and re-use that.

You can click on the backpack button on the bottom of the page and drag the script to it. You then can use this same script on any one of your sprites. You can also have more than one script in the backpack at once.

How can I copy script from one Sprite onto another?

Hello. I am a somewhat new scratcher and I have the OFFLINE version. I don't think the offline has a backpack, but if it does, please tell me.

Can you see that little bar down below with an arrow pointing up? Click the arrow and it will open up your backpack. Drag it into there and go to your other sprite. Drag it out. Hope this helps

How can I copy script from one Sprite onto another?

★ The best way to load scripts from one Sprite to another is to drag it into the backpack. This causes the script to be saved, which you can use to drag out in other sprites . Basically, for example, let's use a picture diagram of what would happen. ★

whenclicked
forever
sayHello! This is an example for a script usagefor2secs
wait5secsstopThis Script


☼ What you would do is drag this script into the backpack, located on the bottom of the screen. Now, the script is saved, and even when you go to another sprite, the script located in the backpack would still be there. Now, go to your other Sprite, open up your backpack, and drag it into the scripts area!

right click it then drag the new one into the other, or if the sprites the same and you want it to everything the same just right click it and duplicate it.

The offline editor doesn't have a backpack. Although that might be different for the Windows or Linux versions… but I know for sure the Mac version doesn't.

You really wanna know.
Drag the script down to an area that says Backpack, then go to your other sprite, open your backpack then drag it
