I actually used to know how to do this because there was a tool that allowed you to do so, but now scratch made 3.0 and I'm currently not informed of how to center sprites as there is not a visible tool available.

Best thing would be if there would be a “go to center - horizontal” and a “go to center - vertical” button when you select parts of your sprite, if you would select everything or if you don't select anything, the whole sprite would be centered. The centering would be done automatically based on the vertical/horizontal size of the object.

Many people want to center the costumes of their sprites, but it is currently hard to do so. Thus, I suggest Double-clicking to center the center point on the center of the costume, or if any item(s) is/are selected, its/their center.

This actually used to be in the 2.x versions of Scratch (as clicking a cross then clicking the center). I have no idea why the removed it. Support.

Well, I support it!

Support support support!
I need this!

However, instead of double-clicking the center of your costume, why not make two buttons, one that allows you to center your costume vertically, and one that can center your costume horizontally. That way, if you want your costume to be at the bottom of the editor but want it to be centered on the y axis, you can do that easily.

This setup with two separate buttons is actually really helpful; I use canva.com, which has this same setup and allows me to center stuff vertically and horizontally.

You can do it like this:
If you make a new costume, the middle/centre is dark grey. So now go to your costume and select everything by pressing Ctrl/Cmd+A and move it away. Now you can see the centre. Move it so the centre fits.

Yes, but once you move your sprite over the center you'll be blind again.

Support because I think this would make things a lot easier.

i might've posted here already

Now you can center it very easy after Scratch update (i think you know it)

:)

Appears to be implemented.

Your costume will now snap to the center.
