Which project?

- Sheep_maker This is a kumquat-free signature. :P
This is my signature. It appears below all my posts. Discuss it on my profile, not the forums. Here's how to make your own.
.postsignature { overflow: auto; } .scratchblocks { overflow-x: auto; overflow-y: hidden; }

I agree with you that there needs to be a

point towards x: (0) y: (0) :: motion

block, but right now you can replicate it using

SPRITE 1:

when I receive [PointTowards v]
go to x: (X) y: (Y)

SPRITE 2:

broadcast [PointTowards v] and wait
point towards [SPRITE 1 v]

Odd. It seems the VM was made with a compatibility mode that runs at 30 fps meant for Scratch 2.0 projects with 60 fps for new projects in 3.0. However, it seems the GUI always turns on compatibility mode, so even 3.0 projects run at 30 fps. Oh well
If a mod wanted to raise the clone limit, I think here would be where it could be set.

Just a quick question - does anyone understand how to center sprites? There doesn't seem to be a tool for that anymore. Is this a problem for anyone else?

SimpleScratch

If select the whole of the sprite in the editor and move it to one side, you can see there is a small circle with cross on it that marks the centre of the sprite.

I also noticed that you can't drag sprites from our background into the costume/background editor anymore? And you cannot import files into the editor. (Like import pictures into an existing sprite/background) I wish we could just disable Scratch 3.0

A hack workaround is to use “upload sprite” to load an image file to a new sprite and then copy and paste it into existing one

Not nice though and not something I'd like to get a a class of 30 pupils trying out at same time!

Try it, but tbh you should really upgrade. Windows XP is really insecure.
this is not my computer I am using this as a temporary until I upgrade to fedora 28

Win XP, lol.
You know a small percentage of people still use XP it's mostly used by hackers to test there hacking skills since windows XP has real bad security, although I think they should try hacking into something a bit more secure cause then there hacking skills would be better.

Anyways, I don't think Scratch 3.0 needs flash and If you were able to run 2.0 (Which did need flash) you should be able to run 3.0, if you have flash that is.

My browser / operating system: MacOS Macintosh X 10.14.1, Chrome 71.0.3578.98, No Flash version detected

Chomps are better than popping candy freddos.

You can import sprites into the Scratch 3.0 Editor, without using a “hack” workaround. Just not export them unfortunately.
The way to import sprites is to just go down to the circle where you add a new sprite (Do NOT click on it) and go up to the top option and click on Upload Sprite. The same goes with costumes and sounds.

SimpleScratch

The same goes with costumes

Aah -didn't see that icon down on the left when editing costumes - ta

EDIT But i doesn't import to current costume - so still have to copy and paste it - but better than having to create a new sprite and having to delete it /EDIT

I think they were referring to the tool in 2.0's paint editor that allows you to select the center point of a costume.

Hey there! I don't use this account anymore. You can find me over at @Scratch137.

That doesn't exist anymore, and it is a pretty important feature. That really should have been there at launch

Sadly, I have a laptop

On a laptop, mouse wheel scrolling is done by using 2 fingers and sliding them up or down.

Scratch should give us the choice to use 2.0 or 3.0. Older scratchers will agree, Scratch 3.0 is very different from the one we're used to. The preview is on the opposite side, the tabs are reorganized… It requires basically re-learning scratch. If beginners want a big, bright, easy interface then let them. But don't force everyone to get used to it. Have a setting to switch to 2.0 and keep 3.0 as the default. Not to mention they removed lots of important tools for the sake of being ‘user-friendly.’
(i dont know where to say this at)

Scratch 1.4 and 2.0 are both available for download.

Also, the stage was on the right during the 1.x period, which lasted from 2007 to 2013, and on the left during the 2.0 period, from 2013 to 2019. Both of these periods of time were around 6 years long. However, with 3.0's release, the stage is back on the right, meaning that the right-stage layout has now been used for a longer period of time than the left-stage layout.
