How do we add new backdrops?
I want to create two backdrops with different background image and sprites. But whenever I add a new backdrop, the sprites of the previous one appear on the screen. I dont want to use them but if I remove/hide them, they get deleted from the previous backdrop too.
Is it possible to do what I want? Can anyone suggest a different method to achieve this.
Basically what I mean by 2 different scenes is that they aren't of the same place. Two different events are happening at different locations with different people. I can't use the same backdrops or sprites for the 2nd one.
Link to my Project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/20751134/ - This is scene 1
Scene 2 involves other actions, which Im still not sure of.

How do we add new backdrops?
Already given you the blocks. It's up to you to decide what happens. It can't really be much clearer; decide what you want to happen when the green flag is clicked and when a backdrop is changed and add a show or hide block to that event block. xoldier1337 has made a good example.
