I want to create a new backdrop in stage in which want to use many sprites. Like I want to create a new backdrop and have 4-5 sprites as a part of the backdrop. Is it possible?

Sprites and backdrops are different things so your question is unclear.

If you want to put multiple pictures on a backdrop you can. Go into edit the costume and upload, draw or choose the images and arrange them as you like on one costume.

Or do you mean change the stage and change the actors on the stage. You can do that too.

If you are talking about to place sprites on-the-go being part of a background already in Stage have those sprites hidden then make those sprites go to where you want and do use block “STAMP”, to remove those stamped sprites use the block “CLEAR”

It might help to get this picture of how Scratch works in your mind…

Think of a stack of sheets of clear plastic. There are pictures drawn on the plastic sheets.

The bottom sheet cannot be resized or moved and always is on SHOW. That's the backdrop.

The sheets above the backdrop are sprites. They can be moved, resized, and set to SHOW or HIDE.

I mean to say…Can we put multiple sprites in the backdrop. Like we are painting a new backdrop…So can we add spites to it? The sprites will be a part of the backdrop. Not individual.

So you need to either stamp and clear as indicated above or copy and paste in the costume editor which certainly used to work but I've not done it for a long time. Then the sprite costumes would also be part of a stage backdrop.

In Scratch, “sprite” has a special meaning. A backdrop is a sprite that cannot be moved or resized and must always be the bottom layer. The same image could be used for a backdrop and used for a sprite, but when it's used for a backdrop, then it has the limitations I just mentioned.

All the sprites in a project always are there but whether you can see them depends on how you use the HIDE and SHOW blocks.

My understanding is that what you want is the equivalent of having a backdrop that includes the image of Scratch cat. Scratch cat my usually be a sprite but that sprite has costumes and what you really mean is that one of those costumes is included in the backdrop image. You can certainly drag and drop one costume onto another in the costume editor in vector mode so copy the sprite costume to the stage when it should appear as a separate backdrop and then in the costume editor drag that costume onto the one you want to add it to.

If that's not what you mean please clarify.

To make a sprite part of your stage…you can use the stamp command…It will put a picture of a sprite on your background that you do not have to worry about z-layers…you can even clear it off later. I hope this is helpful…

Happy Scratching!!!

How do you get of the stage.

Please create your own new topic instead of necroposting. Also make sure your question is clear - I have no idea what you mean unless you mean how to code for a sprite instead of the stage which is just a case of selecting the item you want to code for.

did someone know this so if you try to put stamp block on stage script you can't ok but if you get one on Sprite and pick it with your mouse and drop it on stage script you will get stamp block and it work so how it work? you need 2 backdrop then add a square and over add square but in different place when you stamp and switch to next backdrop you will get the two of them
