Hey there!
I've got a suggestion for Scratch that honestly needs to be there: Onion Skin!

(New Scratchers cannot post images)
Onion Skin basically shows the previous frames of an animation (or in this case, costumes). It is an essential tool that many animators use. I honestly think that we should add Onion Skin to Scratch. It would make animating sooooo much more easy, and the output of animations can be improved a LOT.
Please consider my suggestion, and support it.

I personally just duplicate the previous frame and then edit it how I need it. No support because I think onion skin will be very confusing, especially to younger Scratchers.

I didn't find it very confusing when I was younger.

Support as a hidden feature. I'm assuming a copy of the previous costume is shown with 50% opacity on top of the current costume being edited.

Yup. And what do you mean by ‘hidden feature?’

I've seen that sprite somewhere… somewhere…………
Idk what onionskin is.

Kind of like available in the shift+edit menu.

Bamp.

Yeah, support

Semi-support. Scratch isn't really meant to be animation software.

Bump.
